🩰 YEARS OF DANCE: 14, 8 competitively

👑 THANK YOU TO GIAD MEMBERS: Thank you to all of my teachers who have watched me grow up and shaped me into who I am today. I never would be here if it weren’t for these amazing mentors.

📸 FAVORITE MEMORY AT GIAD: nationals in sandusky with my whole team, playing spoons, going to sheetz, going to cedar point (etc.)

💔WHAT WILL YOU MISS MOST ABOUT GIAD: All my teammates and teachers who have grown into a second family

👶🏻ADVICE FOR YOUNGER DANCERS: it goes by so much faster than you think it will. Make sure to cherish every memory with your team

🎓 FUTURE PLANS: Grand Valley State University, majoring in statistics

💌 THANK YOU, MESSAGE: Thank you to everyone who has supported me through my journey, especially my parents, for being present at every competition and recital and supporting me no matter what. A big thank you to my second family consisting of my teammates and teachers. I would have never gotten through this without all the laughs, hugs, and tears that we have shared. I will forever miss being a part of GIAD.❤️

Congratulations, Brooke! You are one of the hardest-working dancers I know, and it has been incredible to watch your dedication and determination over the years. Not everyone understands the amount of passion, sacrifice, and commitment it takes to balance two full-time sports, but you have done it with strength, grace, and a positive attitude. I am so proud of everything you have accomplished, and I know this is only the beginning. Your future is filled with endless possibilities, and I cannot wait to see all the amazing things you will achieve.

👑 THANK YOU TO GIAD MEMBERS: You guys are the ones I do it for. Thank you for being the reason I keep pushing everyday and making me feel so loved. You guys truly are the best.
