Vision and Passion


Cutting paper dolls one day when I was very young, I left the scissors on the table. A couple of hours later after I had long left that five-minute play time, my mother passively walked by and said to me, “Where did you get those scissors?” I said, “From the drawer.” She replied, “If you put them back in the drawer, they will be there the next time you need them. “ An absolute light bulb went off and I thought my mother was so smart. How could she have such a vast amount of knowledge? At five years old, I certainly had a lot to learn from her.

That one experience has always stayed with me and I still feel that was my first driving factor as to why I am an expert at organization. It was the realization of the gift I actually had and the career that chose me.

What I learned that day made so much sense, THERE IS A PLACE FOR EVERYTHING. When you need that ‘item’, whatever it may be, once it has its place, you can go directly to it. Simply put, it makes life easier.

Everyone has their own gifts. Mine is certainly not nursing, teaching school or rocket science. But over the years, my career in organizing others has led me to use this gift to assist others: first was corporate executives, then friends, neighbors, professional associations, basements and a barrage of other extraordinary and unique spaces.

I’m glad you found my company. With over 25 years of professional experience, my job is to make your life more manageable. Your gifts are different than mine. Let’s talk and share how we can complement and improve upon what you already have! Aren't you ready to get started?!
