Deshauna Barber Biography

Deshauna Barber is a former Miss USA, women’s rights advocate, award-winning international speaker, coach, and entrepreneur with a bold approach to inspiring and encouraging her audience. Deshauna uses her experience as an Army veteran, Nonprofit Vice Chair, former Miss USA, and STEM graduate to inspire her audience. Deshauna shows the power of perseverance and tenacity to now become a top-rated speaker that is widely sought after by Fortune 500 companies. She currently works full time as the President and Chief Executive Officer of Service Women's Action Network, the nation's leading 501c3 nonprofit organization advocating on behalf of all servicewomen and women veterans in the country.

Barber has a Diversity and Inclusion Certification from Cornell University. She also has a Doctorate in Organizational Leadership from Norwich University, a Master of Science degree in Computer Information Systems from the University of Maryland University College, and a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Management from Virginia State University.

As Miss USA, she spent her year-long reign advocating for our men and women in uniform by encouraging our government to provide additional support for soldiers who have Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). The 32-year-old uses her platform to encourage us to pay close attention to the mental health of our service members after deployments and their service to our country.

Barber served her country for over 11 years and when she is not advocating for veterans, she travels the world as a full-time Motivational Speaker. She has made it her life goal to encourage, inspire and strengthen the people around her.

Barber has appeared on "The Steve Harvey Show," "The Rachael Ray Show," "Fox & Friends," "The Chelsea Show," "Good Morning Washington," "The Ellen DeGeneres Show," "The T.D. Jakes Show," "The Nightly Show," "The Source" on Sirius XM, "The Daily Show," "Lunch Break," "Live with Kelly," "Good Morning America" and in Glamour Magazine and Diversity Magazine.
