As a kid I always loved horses. We did not have horses so my dad would take me to a riding stable so I could ride. When I was 14 years old, living in Maryland, my dad bought my first horse named Blue Ridge Thunder, a beautiful dapple gray thorough bred mix, trained for cross county jumping. Time moved on and my family moved to Colorado. 

I met my husband and we raised our children in Colorado where I worked in the school lunch program for 17 years, ending my career as the Director of the school food program. 

For the past 33 years I have been living in Utah. The 2002 Olympic Winter Games brought my family here as my husband engaged in the development and management of the jumping venue for the Olympics. I started in the real estate business in 2002 and currently hold my real estate license in Utah.

I began working as a volunteer at Wild Heart Sanctuary in 2021, who homes wild mustangs forever. Four Onaqui mustangs and five from other HMAs saved from the slaughter pipeline. I sit on the board for Wild Heart Sanctuary. I protest roundups, volunteer on range cleaning, and donate money to organizations involved in saving wild horses and burros. It takes a village to save our wild horses as we all know. 

Having the 2026 National Wild Horse and Burro Conference in Park City gives our wild horse community a name in the fight. Welcome to Utah!

A passionate advocate for Wild Horses and 

Wildlife preservation

Barbara's journey in advocating for the welfare of animals and the preservation of our environment began in her childhood. Later she earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Environmental Studies, Natural Resource Management, and Conservation and has dedicated her life to making a positive impact on the world around her, including volunteering in animal rescue and rehabilitation to working with environmental nonprofits as a campaign coordinator and conservation committee member.
Horses always had a special place in her heart and she grew up riding horses; therefore, when she learned about the cruel mismanagement of wild horses, she decided to channel her passion for equine welfare into meaningful action and volunteer to help with Save Our Wild Horses.
She firmly believes that society must awaken to the cruel treatment of animals and advocates for a robust movement for both animal and environmental rights. Barbara sees the key to a better world lies in cultivating empathy, compassion, and taking decisive action.  She works to inspire others to join her in building a future where humanity coexists harmoniously with nature, including our indigenous wild horses, whom we share this beautiful planet with.
