As the youngest of three Minnesotan brothers, Luke learned about competition, tenacity, and the quest to keep up from a young age. Whether it was scootering around the neighborhood, playing table tennis in the basement, or biking around the city parks of Minneapolis, he had an active childhood. He poignantly remembers the day his dad declared he was old enough to first try skate skiing and he has been on a journey for an abundance of enjoyment, the satisfaction of personal improvement, and the thrill of victory ever since. He first got into biathlon watching Sven Fischer race without gloves at the 2002 Olympics.

Luke took his passion for skiing and everyday rigor to Dartmouth College. There, he studied Physics and English, realized that running on a trail was better than a road, and earned two NCAA Skiing All-American titles. After graduating, Luke moved to Bozeman to continue pursuing his athletic dreams at a high level with the Crosscut Mountain Sports Center. In his first year on the USBA X-Team, he had three top-15 results for Americans at XC Ski Nationals, raced for US Biathlon at Open European Championships and an IBU Cup, and earned start spots for Team USA at the domestic XC Ski World Cups in Quebec City and Minneapolis. His biggest idol/influencer is his brother, Jake Brown. Throughout his years of international racing, Lenzerheide, Switzerland has become his favorite venue.

Outside of biathlon, Luke enjoys table tennis, reading, maps and binoculars, sports films and famous speeches, canoeing, laying on the floor, fall colors and wildflowers, gospel music, public lands, and breaking his high school mile PR.
