ABOUT OUR FOUNDER
"I grew up in an award winning stage & film family. Seeing Emmys, Tonys, & Oscars on shelves was normal. That being said, carving my own path was not an intimidating experience because I was never short on honest information & real world advice.
Entering adulthood I started to slowly realize my childhood experience was not the norm & that many people my age were still figuring out the basics. This was surprising to me. I spent my 20s working as a director/choreographer, sports reporter, & a university professor.
The experience of seeing my peers & my college students sifting through the mountains of misinformation & clickbait articles was in a word, frustrating. Out of my frustration I was inspired to create a platform to better serve & motivate my community.
Working as a choreographer while at the same time interviewing some of the biggest sports teams in the country (USAHockey, NFL) made me realize the extreme similarities between these impressive individuals. I realized that we are ALL athletes & artists and that we can be inspired by one another's stories.
Now, I am telling stories in different mediums, written word & video, on Athletes & Artists. Here we are interviewing & featuring the stories of athletes & artists who I feel will best help inspire the next generation. It brings me so much joy to know that A&A is providing its audience with confidence through knowledge.
That is my story. So I ask, what is yours?"
ABOUT OUR FOOTBALL EXPERT, BROOKE KROMER
Host of A&A's "Huddle Up At Home" & "Sports Minute"
I am Brooke Kromer, a Sports Reporter & Host who grew up in a football world. My father has coached in the NFL my entire life and my brother has now joined him in the league. I studied tape with my dad more than I studied my schoolwork, sorry Mom! Because of that, football is all I know, & you’ll see my passion for the sport in everything I do.
My other passion is storytelling. I love shining light on untold stories from the league, as well as reporting on stories that are happening around the community and on the field. I believe growing up in the league has given me a perspective of the industry that most in my position cannot relate to. I, myself, lived those stories. From growing up watching tape with my dad on the weekdays to attending NFL events and games every weekend, it’s more than a sport or a league. The NFL has been my way of life & my family.
