Congratulations to Dr. Gianina Baker, associate director of the National Institute for Learning Outcomes Assessment, how has been named the 2020 'Forty Under 40' Woman of the Year by Central Illinois Business Magazine!
In addition to her NILOA role, Baker also serves as vice president of the Unit 4 school board and is recognized for spearheading a resolution passed earlier this year declaring racism a public health crisis.
The Forty Under 40 awards recognize young professionals for their achievements, experience, innovation, leadership and community involvement. While they would normally be celebrated at a luncheon, which unfortunately is not possible this year, recipients will be honored on the radio, news-gazette.com and in the next print issue of the Central Illinois Business magazine.
