  • Jun 2020 - Apr 2023

  As a former early childhood educator with a passion for organization, I'm excited to be making the leap from teaching to tidying up as a professional organizer. This journey began as a hobby before the pandemic hit, and as life slowed down, my love for organizing grew. In early 2021, I made the decision to turn my hobby into a full-time career, and haven't looked back since. My goal as a professional organizer is to help my clients create functional, beautiful, and stress-free spaces. Whether it's a cluttered closet, chaotic kitchen, or overwhelmed office, I'm here to help bring order to your home or workspace. I specialize in creating personalized organizational solutions that fit your lifestyle, preferences, and budget. With years of experience in teaching and working with families and young children, I bring a unique perspective to the home organization. I understand the importance of creating a safe and functional environment, especially in households with kids. As a result, my approach to organization is not only practical but also child-friendly and sustainable. If you're ready to take the first step in creating a more organized and functional space, I would love to chat with you. Let's work together to turn your home or office into a space that sparks joy and productivity! Show less
