Barbara K is a single working mother. She is a woman who pioneered and achieved success in the male dominated construction industry. Through her life experiences she has developed a high degree of confidence in herself and has become self-reliant. She believes that these are traits she can pass on to other women. While others speak of empowerment, Barbara demonstrates it in everything she does, from raising her eight-year-old son, to building a successful construction company and then, having the vision, organizational skills, and motivation to create Barbara K Enterprises. Barbara K is the embodiment of the woman who leads an independent lifestyle.
Her work in construction led Barbara to the realization that tools made for men were intimidating for women to use. This was the motivation for starting Barbara K! She designed and launched her initial product line of high quality tools, toolkits and accessories in May 2003. Since that time, Barbara K! has grown and expanded to other categories including automotive, craft and the college market. Concurrently, Barbara's message of empowerment for women who seek to lead an independent lifestyle has been communicated through her advertising and television appearances on shows such as Good Morning America, The TODAY Show, ESPN, Fox 5, CNN, Inside Edition and many more.
