WNBA Stylist Amadi Brooks, ’16 ’17, has made a significant impact in the world of women’s fashion, particularly in the realm of sports. Brooks, who grew up in Douglasville, Georgia, has always had a passion for both fashion and athletics. From a young age, she knew these two fields would be her calling, and her journey toward merging them began during her time at Eastern Kentucky University (EKU).
Brooks attended EKU on a basketball scholarship, where she studied apparel design and then earned a master’s in sports administration. Resources, such as the Bratzke Student-Athlete Academic Success Center, encouraged her to excel both on and off the court. Brooks embraced her father’s motto, “look good, feel good, play good,” inspiring her to merge style with sports.
