An
American who has lived in London for much of the last 18 years, Barbara has
spent most of her career in the airline industry; first as a manager at British
Airways and from 1997 to 2002 as Founder and CEO of budget airline Go.
Go was started-up with a £25m investment by British Airways. It made a profit
within 3 years and Barbara headed a £110m management buyout, backed by 3i. A
year later the company was sold to easyJet for £374m. In 2002, Barbara was named
Veuve Clicquot Business Woman of the Year and was voted Entrepreneur of the Year
among the readers of a top UK broadsheet.
Following this, Barbara was asked to be Chairman of London's Olympic Bid which
she successfully guided through the first bid stage before handing over to Lord
Coe. Barbara is now a vice chairman to the bid and a passionate supporter.
