Barb is currently our Sponsor Contracts Manager, but she has quite a history with us! She worked full-time for the Cincinnati Chamber back in the 90s selling memberships for 6.5 years. After taking a break to raise her four children, she returned and has been working part-time since 2013 assisting in various departments. Her favorite volunteer opportunities are helping with the Running of the Wieners to kick off Oktoberfest and being inspired by the wonderful stories shared by our Great Living Cincinnatians honored at our Annual Dinner. She enjoys singing, traveling, SCUBA diving, running, and eating cake.
