Janice Baker - Army Intel Veteran Takes the Spotlight as an Actor, Producer and Director
Manage episode 386261756 series 3002077
Janice Baker served 22 years as a Veterinary Corps Officer in the US Army on active duty and Army reserve, with most of this time in special operations medical and canine units.
Along with multiple deployments in support of special operations canine programs, Janice also gained extensive experience designing and running large-scale, realistic medical training exercises.
As she transitioned to civilian life and feeling like her entire identity had vaporized, she pursued acting first as a hobby to “figure out what she actually liked to do other than Army stuff,” which grew into a professional career in television, film, and commercials.
She soon realized that from a leadership standpoint, producing and directing productions on-camera was very similar to running those large-scale training exercises, and now enjoys her next chapter in life working professionally as an actor, screenwriter, producer, and director.
