Email: Brooke@BrookeAllen.com Phone: +1 (707) 276-6530. My more whimsical alter ego writes and performs as Len Bakerloo (LenBakerloo.com). My bot, Alex, and I also write under our pen name: Alex Bakerloo (AlexBakerloo.com) Mission: To earn the gratitude of future generations. Story: BA Math>MBA Finance>Programmer>Analyst>Trader>Hedge Fund Manager>Author>Social Entrepreneur>Screenwriter. Business: Viral Virtue, Inc. Creed: To care. If I care I can figure out the rest and if I don't care then it doesn't matter. Ethical Code: Tell the whole truth. See my: Disclosure and Values.

FLASH: My wife, Eve, and I amicably divorced on May 2, 2024 after 37 years, 5 months, and 21 days of marriage. We are still friends, we are still parents to our sons, but we don't all live under the same roof. Any stories here that refer to us being married were true at the time of authorship.
