Brooke Hopwood

Cal Poly '28

Brooke is a gap-year first-year at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo studying Environmental Management & Protection. She was born and raised in Chicagoland and she refuses to quit yapping about her Chicago pride. She also won best narrative writing in 2nd grade and her piece was displayed in the main hallway for upwards of two weeks.

When she's not accepting thousands of awards for writing (aka one - see main hallway narrative piece), she enjoys working on her impulse-buy sailboat, crocheting a baby blanket for her future baby (psychotic), and trying to figure out Billy Joel’s phone number. She is also chronically offline and permanently embarrassed in social situations.

Brooke hopes to use her degree and passion for writing to inform environmental policy and quell misinformation. If you’re looking for her in 5 years, she might be living on her boat and, fingers crossed, hanging out with Billy Joel.
