Meet Barb Walker, The Computer Lady

"How do you know so much about computers?"

I started using computers in 1978 and it has been an ongoing process, one little step at a time. That's how I encourage you to learn - one baby step at a time. No one masters computers overnight!

My background:

  • 15 years as a secretary in the corporate world
  • Owned a secretarial service for 10 years (learned lots about computers)
  • Computer trainer at MicroCenter in Denver, Colorado
  • National trainer with CareerTrack
  • In 2007 I self published Taming Your Computer – The Simple Basics and Beyond

When I think about it, I've been teaching all my life. It never occurred to me that someday I would make my living as a computer trainer.

And for fun....

My husband Ken and I love to spend time with our family, especially our three grandkids, ages 3 to 15 years. It's our way of slowing down and enjoying the simple pleasures in life. We are so blessed to have both of our kids and their families in the Denver area. I recently retired from my computer training business and enjoy spending my time "digging up my ancestors" through genealogy research.

We also enjoy staying at bed & breakfasts. With our hectic lives, it's such a pleasure to go somewhere special and enjoy being waited on in a beautiful, quiet environment.
