Ms. Baker has spent the last twenty years fostering strategic community initiatives that demonstrate the importance of connecting the past to our future path. Since 2014, she has been appointed by Florida’s Senate President and House Speaker to serve as the Director of the Florida Historic Capitol Museum. Her passion for strengthening communities extends far beyond her professional career. She is an active volunteer both locally and statewide and is a member of the Tallahassee-Leon County Bicentennial Steering Committee. Some of her proudest moments include her participation in the work of the Florida Association of Museums, Knight Creative Communities Institute Community Catalyst Program; Leadership Florida; and Leadership Tallahassee. She’ll be appearing as part of the Tallahassee Bicentennial Panel at this year’s Word of South and discussing the new book Florida’s Historic Capitol Building.
