Barbara Baker - Secretary

Barbara is an avid fly-fisher, which is her passion– and she is lucky enough to have a husband that builds her fly-rods and ties her fly-fishing flies.  She and her husband enjoy camping with their dogs and international travel.   For her ‘day job’ she’s as attorney working as a sole practitioner.  Prior to law school, she earned a bachelor’s degree in social work and was employed at the Wyoming Girl’s School for eight years.  Originally from Iowa, after spending some time in California after law school she calls Sheridan home.  Barbara has no horse experience, but feels that that lack of experience is a helpful perspective for those clients who have little horse knowledge, but is committed to learning more about horses.
