Pre TV – Barbara hosted (Presented/Mc’d/DJ’d) shows on community, hospital & pirate radio and was part of Nairobi Capital FM’s Barack Obama Election shows. She also ran and DJ’d at her own events which included Live Music Salsa evenings, a series of events she called ‘Lickle Partee’ (as a joint venture) playing Reggae/Motown/Soul music (with Carnival style food boxes) and also house and garage club nights.
When 11yrs old Barbara started writing poetry finding it a positive outlet. She had a poem published in the Young Readers’ Digest. This past time developed into song writing and she has made a few old school garage and acoustic tracks over the years!
