Guest Bio //
Brooke Forry is the co-founder and creative director of Curious and Company, a boutique branding design firm working with small businesses and female business owners. Graduating from the University of Delaware with a bachelors in Visual Communication, her experience as an in-house designer for The Philadelphia Orchestra and Saint Joseph’s University, in addition to boutique design studio work — including over a decade since co-founding Curious & Co. — has cultivated her expertise in print design, love of color, and laser-focused attention to detail. In her spare time, Brooke turned a passion side-project, the Balancing Book Planner, into a product line under the Curious & Co. umbrella to organize all personal, professional, family, and other tasks while balancing being a business owner, a wife, a mother, and a woman. In 2022, Brooke Forry created her very own podcast alongside her co-host Amanda Jefferson titled, ‘Good Enough-ish’ discussing how to juggle all the challenges life throws at you.
