How does local businesswoman Barbara Hammock define life in La Quinta? Energetic. Active. A place of unbounded opportunities.

Whether she's on the golf course, getting involved in her book club and investment club, taking a walk amidst the breathtaking desert landscape or working tirelessly to help her clients, Barbara takes a truly active approach to life.

A Winning Outlook
It’s an attitude Barbara learned early on. Growing up in New York, she felt driven to be independent and to work hard toward her goals. Accepting a position with MCI, then a fledgling young company, Barbara rose up the ranks to become one of its first women managers. Never one to shy away from a challenge, Barbara packed up and moved to California in 1980 to pursue an entrepreneurial vision. Her business partnership became one of the most successful singles-matching services in the country, which she founded and operated for nearly a decade.

Making the Most of Every Moment
As Barbara’s resume demonstrates, taking a chance in order to gain new experiences and explore new challenges is par for the course. She even moved to Australia for a year as a marketing professional for a successful inventor. Eventually, she returned to Southern California, where she assisted her husband, Bob, a county supervisor, and worked in political campaign finance. After vacationing in the Coachella Valley, it was soon clear to the Hammocks that La Quinta would be the ideal place to call home. Ever since that moment, Barbara has made the most of every opportunity this active community offers.
