Brooke received her bachelor’s summa cum laude and Phi Beta Kappa in history, policy studies, and Spanish translation from Rice University. She graduated with the J. Venn Leeds Award for Excellence in Scholarship, awarded to Rice University seniors with the 10 highest cumulative GPAs.

As a Boren Fellow for the Defense Language and National Security Education (DLNSEO), Brooke studied abroad at the Universidad de Buenos Aires (UBA).

Clinton and President George W. Bush. Brooke later served as the executive writer for the director of Los Alamos National Laboratory. She was the director’s voice to a staff of 8,000 technical staff members, researchers, and professionals.
