  • How Virtual Services work

    If you are uncomfortable with me coming into your home, we can do this virtually. First, you'll fill out a quick questionnaire and take the Home Attitudes Quiz, then you send me pictures or videos of your trouble spots, we will discuss your goals. I will analyze them and come up with a plan for you to follow. I will be your "accountability coach". We will stay in touch via phone, text, Facetime, Zoom, or whatever works best for you. You can send me pics and/or videos of your progress along the way and I will provide feedback and helpful solutions when you need them. Virtual services can be combined with a one-time in-person meeting to assess your organizing personality and the job at hand and/or a final follow-up meeting. I'm flexible and I'm here for you!

  • About Me

    My parents were extremely organized, tidy people. Everything had a place. I grew up surrounded by neatness and organization, except for my parents’ various rehab projects, and even they were organized chaos.

     

    When I left home, I married a garbage man’s son. Their house was the proverbial “garbage house”. Dad brought everything home from his route. Furniture, toys, housewares, booze, food, clothing, I mean everything! The house was always a disaster. I tried to help my mother-in-law clean, but dad was always bringing home more junk. I struggled endlessly to clean that house. I swore when I had my own place, it would be impeccable! I have achieved that goal throughout my years.

     

    A few years ago when my mother passed, I found myself with most of her belongings, which included a lot of my late father's stuff. It was a difficult process, going through everything. Many times I just felt like I couldn't do it. But I pushed through it. It was a huge learning experience as far as de-cluttering goes. Much of what I share with you is from personal experience.

     

    I have studied numerous organizational theories; Marie Kondo, Feng Shui, Fly Lady, and beyond. I took a professional organizing course and received a certificate of completion in 2019.

     

    So, in conclusion, I have ERE (Experience, Research, Education) and a strong desire to help people.

     

    Now I want to help you unburden your life and free your spirit!
