Barbara has a sound academic foundation and seems to be a student for life. She believes in life long learning and values professional networks. She is affiliated to various organizations.

She ascribes her success to a calling from God and a huge portion of grace and mercy. Teamwork is a key element in working with people, especially in challenged communities. In an era where services to people is fractured and takes place in isolated pockets, she appeals on people’s goodwill and advocates for working together to achieve synergy. “Together we can make a lasting difference”.

"An eagle is an important symbol in my life. In this picture I tried to capture the idea of a eagle that was chained to a very short peg and then the clips that held the brace in place goes loose. It is may purpose and passion to help people get rid of the things that bind and limit them. By the grace of God people can get rid of the issues, limitations and pain of the past and fly higher that they ever did before."
