Each week, I share no-fluff pageant coaching to help you lead, speak, and leave a legacy. With 300+ interviews and coaching across Miss Universe, Miss USA, and Miss America, this isn’t theory—it’s what works.
About Brooke
Brooke Nixon is a proud Maryland native and honors graduate from Christopher Newport University (B.S., Computer Information Science and Psychology) and Wake Forest University (M.A, Experimental Psychology).
As Miss Maryland Volunteer 2025, Brooke works heavily with her initiative #TechTelligence, which is dedicated to promoting cyber safety, teaching technical literacy, and equipping individuals with the tools to build cyber resilience. Through her published children’s book, Tessie Turtle’s Cyber Adventure, law and policy advocacy, and national partnership with the Girl Scouts of the USA, her work has reached thousands across the country.
A nationally recognized researcher, Brooke’s studies in developmental psychology and human-computer interaction have been featured in media including NPR’s “With Good Reason” radio show and led to publications in the Journal of Language and Social Psychology and the Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, among others.
