Hi, I’m Brooke Furner
I was born and raised in Maitland, Australia
And I’m currently in Newcastle, Australia
You’ll find me eating anything italian
And you’ll see me drinking a Pinot Grigio or Verdelho with ice
A sports moment I’ll never forget is watching Ash Barty win the 2022 Australian Open! An amazing atmosphere and magical moment seeing her be presented with the trophy by her idol Evonne Goolagong Cawley. A close second was watching my son’s U/14 NSW Kookaburra’s team win the 2024 Australian Country Junior Basketball Cup undefeated.
The sports or entertainment venue you’ll have trouble getting me out of is Rod Laver Arena. Love watching a thrilling tennis match!
I idolise my dad – he will always be my hero
On the weekend you’ll find me at a basketball stadium watching my son play or train – watching him live his best life. I also like to immerse myself in a good book or get distracted by a jigsaw puzzle.
I’m always happy to talk about my family, friends and travelling. I am grateful for the opportunities I have had to travel; spending quality time with my son and husband during our recent Europe trip (in 2024) embracing the different cultures, food and experiences is pretty cool. My close friends mean to the world to me and spending time with them always fills my cup with lots of laughter and love.
Something you may not know about me is that in the past I have been a multi-year National Physical Culture Finalist!
Brooke would love to hear from you. Here are the details...
