PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE

Aided by former State Senator Dede Alpert, as a private citizen Barbara led the successful effort to save the Coronado-San Diego Commuter Ferry Service from defunding by regional officials. Barbara also served by appointment on the Executive Board of the Coronado Transportation Management Association (CTMA) where she worked to increase transit service for all of Coronado, including our elderly, young and disabled residents. Currently Barbara serves on the Board of Directors of the South County Economic Development Council (SCEDC), where she is also a member of the SCEDC Transportation Committee. And Barbara represents the City of Coronado on the Metropolitan Transit System (MTS) Executive Board.

In addition to her focus on transportation and traffic reduction, Barbara is an attorney experienced in land use and water law. On the local government level, Barbara worked as the Land Use Intern for the San Diego City Councilmember representing San Diego District 1 which includes La Jolla, University City, Carmel Valley, Rancho Penasquitos, and more. There Barbara worked with residents, business owners, developers and others to balance interests and to protect property rights while getting things done in that district. On the state government level, Barbara wrote the litigation brief which successfully defended the San Diego Region Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) Permit from lawsuit. The MS4 Permit is the foundation of Coronado's municipal water policy.

In addition to state and local government experience, Barbara's government service also includes the county and federal levels. Barbara worked as a Child Support Enforcement Attorney in the San Diego County District Attorney's Office where she helped children and families. In addition Barbara worked on staff in the San Diego office of United States Senator Dianne Feinstein, where she proudly served our military veterans and other constituents in California at the national level.

Barbara is currently on hiatus from practicing law in order to devote herself full-time to serving the needs of Coronado as a member of our City Council.

Past SPEAK OUT CORONADO Town Hall Meeting topics include, but are not limited to, city finances, traffic reduction, disaster preparedness, Neighborhood Watch and historic preservation.

Since she first ran for office several years ago, Barbara has worn out many yellow sun hats and pairs of shoes walking door-to-door on a weekly basis around our island. Barbara enjoys walking door-to-door because in this way she directly helps residents and local business owners while keeping her finger on the pulse of our island.
