Faculty & Staff

When you meet our faculty and staff members, you’ll notice how much they love this community!
They love the way Baker fosters a spirit of creativity in children and the freedom they have to be creative themselves. They believe passionately in the potential of our wonderfully diverse students, and apply that passion to creating the best possible environment for them to learn, grow and thrive.
You’ll feel their passion shine through as you read their bios below.
You will also notice how accomplished they are, both in terms of degrees they’ve earned and their life experience, both of which they utilize to go above and beyond academic instruction. They are mentors, guides and co-learners who daily support the social and emotional needs of our students as well.
(You’ll also discover who the karaoke fanatics are, and learn about a few interesting hobbies … can you find the vintage lunchbox collector? Or the skydiving, bungee-jumping daredevil?)
