Personal life
Born and raised in Seattle, Washington, Brooks began skiing as a young girl, primarily at Snoqualmie Pass where her family owned a cabin and she took lessons through the Junior Nordic Program.
Vancouver 2010 Olympics
It was announced on 26 January 2010 that Brooks had qualified for the 2010 Winter Olympics. She competed in five events. Her best finish was 12th in the 4 × 5 km relay and her best individual finish of 36th in the 30 km event.[8] Her entrance to the Olympics came as a surprise as she was not a full-time athlete, and had only recently begun to think about skiing at an elite level.
Sochi 2014 Olympics
On 22 January 2014, Brooks was selected to represent the United States at the 2014 Winter Olympics.[9]
