About

I'm a copywriter and MARCOM specialist based in Wilmington, NC
Hi, I'm Barbara.
I write things and connect people to ideas, resources, and each other.
My Culture Statement
Honor God. Playing for a purpose greater than yourself produces greatness. Get to know Him.
Love and Value Others. Help others improve and value their experience.
Impact. Leave everything better than when you got there.
See it First. Leaders Lead! I notice, I see, and then I act.
Fast to the Fight. Face everything head-on- and be the first (and last!) on the scene.
Explore your world. ATD: Attention to detail! Leave no stone unturned.
Be BOLD. Ask for what you need and want. Everything is negotiable, and everyone can win.
Work harder than everyone else. Hard work develops talent and character.
Be indispensable. No one else can do what you do... so make your absence felt.
Delegate Responsibly. Give as much attention to your subordinates as you do to yourself.
Always Training. The more we learn, practice, and perfectly execute, the better we get.
Quiet Professional. Be humble. Be professional. Go where others won't and do what others don't. Get it done. Get home safe.
Fear Nothing- Just Get some! Innovation and breakthrough are built in adversity.
Have fun. If you don't love what you do, what's the point?
My Values
LOVE GOD

My Why
I am a survivor of long-term violent crime including CSA, MSA, trafficking, sexual assault, kidnapping and captivity, stalking, cyberstalking, assault, attempted murder, interpersonal terrorism and coercive control.
To this day, I have never seen justice served.
As a minority, a disabled person, and a veteran with little to no access to resources who had to fight for basic human rights in so many settings I should not have been denied them, I want to see a better world for ALL children, beginning with my own.
My goal is to help people stay safe, get safe, secure their world, show kindness, be creative, and access resources to experience freedom so they can live their best lives. I also want to see reform in the systems that enabled the violence against me to occur and continue.
I teach people how to be trauma-informed, resilient, kind to themselves and others, mindful, present in the moment, aware of their surroundings, and at peace... because it took me a long time to learn these skills, and there were not as many helpers along the way as there should have been.
Let's help and heal.
