Staff Spotlight: Karen Baker

In each upcoming newsletter, we'll get a chance to meet a member of the College's hard-working staff. This month, we get to know Karen Baker, graduate programs assistant coordinator with the College of Public Health.

Background: Baker grew up in Austintown, Ohio. Her father was a crane operator for Republic Steel and her mother was a homemaker. 

Education: "After high school, I never intended to go to college. Employment was encouraged over higher education. However, I started picking up classes in accounting at Youngstown State University," says Baker. She adds, "I enjoyed balancing spreadsheets! I worked full time and in 2008, my place of employment closed. I turned it into an opportunity and immediately applied for- and received - Workforce Investment Act funding to finish my associate's degree. I then applied to 小黄片视频 and graduated with honors with an AAB at 50 years old."

History with the College of Public Health: "I came from the 小黄片视频 Trumbull campus and started working at the Kent campus for the College of Public Health graduate programs in 2012," adds Baker.
