Brooke Sandoval’s Inspiring Journey to Brookies Kitchen: A Culinary Dream Fueled by Love and Family
In a heartwarming tale of perseverance and passion, Brooke Sandoval has embarked on a culinary adventure with the launch of her very own cooking company, Brookies Kitchen. Motivated by her deep love for cooking, her family, and the infectious joy she brings to people’s faces through her delicious creations, Brooke’s journey is as inspiring as it is heartwarming.
The spark that ignited Brookies Kitchen was Brooke’s unwavering dedication to her kids and her family. Faced with the challenges of caring for her son, who suffers from the rare syndrome of Treacher Collins, and requiring 24-hour watch under certified supervision, Brooke found herself unable to work in a traditional setting. However, instead of letting this setback deter her, she turned to her passion for cooking as a means of both creative expression and financial support for her family.
Drawing inspiration from her grandmothers, KC and Christina, Brooke honed her culinary skills and developed a unique flair for creating mouthwatering dishes that not only delighted the taste buds but also warmed the heart. Her kitchen became a sanctuary of love and creativity, where she poured her soul into every recipe, infusing them with the love and care that only a devoted mother could provide.
For Brooke, nothing compares to the joy of cooking and sharing her creations with her family, friends, and even her children’s friends. The smiles that light up the faces of those who taste her food are a testament to the passion and dedication she pours into every dish. It is this joy, this connection with others through food, that drives Brooke to continue pursuing her culinary dreams despite the challenges she faces.
Brookies Kitchen is not just a business venture for Brooke; it is a labor of love, a testament to the power of family, and a celebration of the simple joys that come from sharing a delicious meal with those we hold dear. As Brooke continues to grow her company and share her culinary gifts with the world, she remains rooted in the values of love, family, and the transformative power of a home-cooked meal.
In a world filled with challenges and uncertainties, Brooke Sandoval and Brookies Kitchen stand as a shining example of resilience, love, and the enduring power of food to bring people together. With every dish she creates, Brooke is not just feeding stomachs; she is nourishing souls and spreading joy one bite at a time.
From novels to movies to music, Jimmy Dasaint has built a career defined by one word—hustle. And this year, the Philly native is proving once again why he’s considered one of the city’s most influential creative voices.
His latest novel, BLACK SCARFACE 5: Fear is Stronger Than Love, is the explosive conclusion to his award-winning series.

Fans have responded with overwhelming support, driving the book to ️️️ Star5️ reviews on Amazon.
But Jimmy’s storytelling doesn’t stop on the page. On September 20th, streaming service Tubi will release his newest feature film, THE WRONG BITCH. With a cast of rising stars—Tera Alford, JaQuai Felton, and Mavia Barnes—the film becomes Jimmy’s 13th feature, a testament to his consistency and dedication to bringing authentic urban stories to the screen.

Through it all, Jimmy remains true to his motto: “Bringing Hollywood to Philly.” With each project, he shines a spotlight on his city while inspiring the next generation of creators to believe that success doesn’t have to come from leaving home—it can be built right here in Philadelphia.

Platinum Audio Engineer & Award-Winning Writer Mark “Savage” on Entering Management and Tackling Patriarchy
For years, Mark “Savage” Sanders bold, dynamic mixing style has landed him work behind the boards of major tours and hit records alike. Working with artists like Shordie Shordie, Lizzo, Coi Leray, Kevin Gates, Fetty Wap, Kelly Rowland and more, Mark sports an ever-expanding discography of cutting edge of popular music. We spoke with Mark to get insights into his career arc, workflow, and to understand how his unique sound is built upon a firm foundation of technical skill, knowledge and deep listening.
For starters, could you tell me how you got into engineering?
So at my high school they had an early college program where you could get your associates or a certificate by graduation. I wasn’t looking to be an audio engineer. I don’t even think I really knew what an audio engineer was, which makes it all the more crazy. I saw music production schools, but I went for audio engineering at Full Sail University.
What boards were you working on when you were doing live sound?
It was whatever the house had. Working on Mackie boards or Yamaha boards that only had seven inputs that worked—Avid and Midas consoles, the M32s, the Behringer X32, a lot of different stuff. Being a live sound engineer taught me so much signal flow and having to adapt to different spaces and different gear all the time. If I’m on tour and we’re generally using the same board, we’re probably never using the same monitors for front-of-house. The rooms are bigger or smaller—different places have different problem areas—being in a stadium or doing a festival where you have delays and all that stuff is just insane.
So you were ghostwriting, engineering, producing, and rapping in the beginning?
Yes I did it all except play an instrument.
Now today you’ve received a BMI Award, 2x Platinum, and over 12,000 sync placements how does it feel?
If I had to be honest I don’t care about any of it anymore. I want to see my Son win big like this. I’m more into family these days. I did everything I wanted in life and overachieved. I’m good!
We see you have Royalty ENTERTAINMENT & managing as far as entertainment goes what else can we expect?
Whatever God does. I’m not chasing anything anymore. Focused on living life, family, and wealth/health. Definitely support my DJ, DJ King, Ashley Blaire, and Pretty Liyah. Other than that I’m about to be out the way. (He laughs) I’m so burnt out. I’m chilling.
Last question, seeing that you did everything you wanted is there anything left that you haven’t 2025 going forward?
No just travel more that’s it. Like when I say I’ve given life everything I’ve had. I’ve given it everything. Plus I think most people are waiting for me to be famous or something which I’m avoiding and praying never happens.
