Born and raised in Marysville, PA, Brooke obtained a B.A. in Political Science in 2006 from The Pennsylvania State University, University Park, PA, and a J.D. from The Widener Commonwealth Law School, Harrisburg, PA, in 2009. In 2008, Brooke was offered the Right-to-Know Law Administrator position with the Pennsylvania House of Representatives, a job she worked while completing her law degree in the evenings. In 2010, Brooke assumed the dual roles of Assistant House Counsel & Right-to-Know Law Administrator, serving under the Chief Clerk of the House. In 2012, Brooke was promoted to House Counsel, where she assumed full responsibility for the legal affairs of the House Chief Clerk & Comptroller.

In 2021, Brooke was elected Chief Clerk of the House of Representatives, earning the distinction of the first female ever to hold that position in Pennsylvania.
