Barbara is currently involved in the Tanglewilde/Westmont Neighborhood Traffic Study, HPD’s “Positive Interaction Program,” Tanglewilde’s “Citizen’s On Patrol,” the Tanglewilde/Westmont joint “National Night Out” and generally gets roped into Tanglewilde’s “Fourth of July” festivities. Barbara moved to Houston from Venezuela when she was four years old. With the exception of those four years, two years in Austin and two years in Dallas, Houston has been home. Barbara graduated from Spring Woods High School (just north on Gessner in the Spring Branch district), attended the University of Texas at Austin and graduated from the University of Houston. She has been in the broadcasting industry for over 30 years. Barbara can usually been seen walking her dogs through the neighborhood every morning and every evening.
