“Author, artist, and educator,” Barbara said she drew from all aspects of her education, and professional and personal experiences, when she wrote her award-winning narrative, Second Chance Ranch, about the journey of a caregiver. The book was endorsed by Hospice and is dedicated to the organization. Her second book, The Holding Pen--A Collection of Unusual Love Prose is an anthology of women struggling in their relationships. Her third book, Baby Boomer Men Looking for Love, written specifically for mature men, is in its second printing.

A bond trader for more than 20 years working in the World Trade Center in New York City, Barbara became interested in human behavior and spent several years at New York Medical College, in the School of Public Health, at Westchester Medical Center, creating preventive programs for organizations and community partnerships. With a graduate degree in Public Health (MPH) in Behavioral Science and Health Promotion, and a graduate degree in Social Work from Arizona State University (MSW), she trained with the AZ Attorney General's office in mediation. She uses mediation techniques in family conflict resolution and partnership disputes.

Barbara presented the Cultural Arts Coalition on Health and Wellness at ASU in October 2006, and her oil painting ‘The Real First Family’ was included in the month long celebration of Community Arts Partnerships. Her artwork can be found on “Marshall Way” and “Canyon Road.”

She is quoted often in the AZ Republic Relationship Section and has been featured in the East Valley Tribune. Case in Point Magazine contracted her to write feature articles directed at healthcare workers, case managers, hospice personnel, nurses and social workers. The December 2007 issue featured her articles on “Compassion” and “Narrative Therapy.”

Barbara is a member of the American Academy on Communication in Healthcare, The Society of Public Health Educators, and the National League of American Pen Women.
