Keela Johnson

Associate Editor

Keela Johnson — the one who started it all. Keela is originally from Winston-Salem, and for 30 years, she called Clemmons home. She is now enjoying (semi-) retirement life at Lake Norman with her husband, Tim, to whom she has been married since 1984. Together, they have two grown children, Brooke Eagle (who recently took over Keela’s position as publisher of Forsyth Woman) and Tanner, who works in technology and lives in Raleigh. Keela founded Forsyth Woman in 2005. Two years later, she launched Forsyth Family with friend and business partner, Robin Bralley. In 2011, she launched Forsyth Woman Engaged! (now known as FW Engaged) and, in 2015, Forsyth Community. Keela loves spending time at the lake with her family, where she’s picked up some new hobbies: paddle boarding, gardening and daily long walks with friends! Keela also loves to spoil her two grand-dogs, Carter and Ranger, and is an avid Carolina Panthers fan. While the magazines will always hold a special place in her heart, Keela loves her quieter life with Tim!

Brooke Eagle

Publisher

Brooke Eagle is the brand new publisher of Forsyth Woman and FW Engaged and also the host of the Forsyth Magazines Podcast (available on Spotify and Apple Podcasts). Although she is new to the publisher role, she has been working full time with Forsyth Magazines since 2012. She is originally from Clemmons and still calls it home. Though Brooke graduated from High Point University with a degree in Elementary Education, she chose to join the magazines full time after college. Her strong work ethic, love for community and leadership skills have been recognized by others as well! Brooke is the past President of the Professional Women of Winston-Salem and currently serves on the Lewisville-Clemmons Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors as well as the Trellis Foundation Leadership Council. In her spare time, Brooke loves spending time with her family and friends, especially when that time is spent on the water! She loves wake surfing, CrossFit, and being a dog mom to her bernedoodle, Carter.
