Brooke is an award-winning filmmaker and has a BA in Moving Image Arts from the University of Louisiana at Lafayette. She has written and directed seven short horror films, Violet Butterfield being her sixth. Ever since she was a kid, she has written horror stories and always dreamed of being a filmmaker. It wasn’t until she was 37 that she had the opportunity and the confidence to direct her first short film.
She is a multi-faceted filmmaker having worn many hats on others' and her own productions. Other than filmmaking, Brooke founded and independently runs the first horror film festival in her hometown Lafayette, Louisiana. Most recently, she is projected to curate the films for Lafayette’s Pride Festival.
