Meet Amanda Brooks Baker - Membership Director!

Amanda Brooks Baker has been the Society's Director of Membership since 2002, ever since she first became a Super Trixie.

Amanda moved to Broad Ripple from Lake Geneva, Wisconsin, where she grew up and spent her high school years. She proceeded to attend college at Notre Dame University, where most of her friends and classmates from Lake Geneva went too! When she graduated in 1999, she decided it was time to move down to the big city--and surprise, Indianapolis was it. She quickly decided that Broad Ripple was the only place for her and immediately moved into a one room studio right in the heart of it all (she was only making $20k at a sales job in Carmel at the time - haha! poor girl). Amanda proceeded to move from many small, expensive apartments to newer, smaller, more expensive apartments, in search of that perfect Broad Ripple home. She finally settled into a cozy two room coach house over on tony Washington Boulevard, where she lives with three other girls and splits the rent.

Amanda manages all membership activities for the society, including chairmanship of the membership committee, maintaining the membership roster, and evaluating and processing new memberships and applications. As you can imagine, Amanda remains extremely busy!

Amanda now works for a large, high-profile law firm downtown (it is not Trixie-like to name-drop but you would be impressed) in an administrative accounting role, and hopes to leverage her BRTS leadership position to get promoted into human resources.
