Getting organized and staying organized are ongoing goals for many of us. We understand that by creating systems that will create balance and harmony in our surroundings, we will find more time to focus on the things that are the most important to us. But with the overwhelming amount of “stuff” that fills our homes and activities that fill our days, the question is, “Where to begin?”
As a professional organizer, I will help you achieve your goals. I will work with you to customize a plan that will best fit your needs. Organizing is a skill that can be learned and is much easier to maintain when well-designed systems are in place.
Living an organized life will save you time and money while lowering your stress level and allowing you to focus on what matters most to you.
About Me
Having spent many years in the corporate world and traveling extensively both domestically and internationally, I know the importance of organization at home, at work or while traveling. Being organized has allowed me to experience success while focusing on the joy of living in the moment. My organizational, planning and project management skills were cultivated in my 12+ years working in resort operations and marketing for the Walt Disney Company in both Orlando , Florida and Paris, France. I have also used organizational resources and systems in my travels, including an 8-month backpacking trip around the world.
Many of the organizing systems and techniques I use with my clients are ones I use personally, others I have learned in training courses offered through well-known national organizations (see below). I am motivated by the sense of pride and relief I see when my clients achieve their goals, freeing themselves from clutter and frustration and creating the life and surroundings they had always envisioned for themselves.
