Barbara knew she was destined for airwaves when she got her first big broadcasting break: announcing the news over the loudspeaker in the middle school principal’s office. Fast forward a few (years and now she’s meeting the crushes she had way back (hellooo Rick Springfield) when she introduces them on stages big and small. Music has been a constant companion throughout her life. She and her husband have a voracious live music appetite and plan family vacations around concerts. She also frequently lends her voice to national commercials (such as Entenmanns Little Bites). She also has a spoiled rotten rescue dog named Mia, and two daughters.
