He is a 4th Degree Knight of Columbus, active in his Faith volunteering and organizing Fund Raisers and Church functions. His 2 sons are both Eagle Scouts, "half of the fun getting them to that rank was walking that trail with them and investing in their future".

"In continuation of that importance of guiding our youth to their life's path", Dr. Mirza and Dr. Baer-Mirza restarted the Dental Explorer Program in 2016. They encourage area high school students to take a good look at what the Field of Dentistry has to offer.

When Dr. Baer is not running an office or practicing Dentistry she could likely be found multi-tasking the balancing act of keeping up with a fast-paced family.
