My name is Maria Baker, I am a proud Waka Waka woman with four (4) sons I am very proud of. 

I grew up in the Ipswich region and I am a descendant of the Purga Mission on my Mother’s side.

I was appointed to the Kambu Health Board at the November 2022 Annual General Meeting. 

I bring to this role my vast experience from sitting on various Boards including:

• Bremmer State High School Indigenous Advisory Board

• Indigenous Liaison Officer Recruitment Panel Queensland Police – Ipswich
  

In addition, I was a union delegate for 25 years.

In my spare time, I enjoy participating in the Deadly Games.
