About

I have been customizing my arsenal of organization strategies and techniques to suit my clients' needs for over 15 years. As a working mom and business owner, I know how important it is to your family’s well-being to get your home, business, and life organized (and to keep them that way). Rest assured that any organizational system we put into place will be one that truly works for you, your family, and your business—one you can successfully maintain and even tweak as your needs change. As odd as it may seem, organizing is really fun for me! I love to redesign and rework things to create better, more efficient systems for storing items and getting things done. My favorite part? Watching the tension drift away from my clients' shoulders as we sort and purge years' worth of forgotten items, then seeing pure joy find its way onto my clients' faces as we step back and revel in their newfound sense of calm and order.

She helped me with all my paperwork, and there was a bunch of it… She kept a smile on her face and helped me through that miserable process of sorting letters and important paperwork… Actually, she made it go fast and it was fun. Being visually impaired, not something I can do that much off. She was a great help so now being text time I will see if she will help me again.

She was alert and fun to work with. It gave me a boost of energy just to be working with her. We all need that input sometimes. It was a great job and we finished it in record time finding paperwork getting ready for income tax to guarding so much other junk that I don’t know if you do this, but I do throw everything back goes through it later she was great. She had a good sense of humor about my mess. :-)

Michelle exceeded the benefits that I hoped I would get from hiring someone to help me organize my cluttered house. I have set up two more appointments with her and because of her professionalism and experience she has begun to improve how I feel about living in my home.

This was my first time working with a professional organizer. I didn't know what to expect. Michelle was on time and was ready to get right to work! She held me accountable every step of the way. Although I wanted to take a break or give up, she helped me to make sense of my mess and even gave me "homework." I appreciate her follow-up notes/messages of useful items to purchase to store my items and maximize my space. It was helpful to brainstorm with her on projects in the home. As I continue to settle and work on projects around the house I look forward to inviting her back again!

It has been a stellar experience working with Michelle! She is compassionate and kind in helping go through and organize my Mom’s items. My Mom recently passed away, so this was not an easy task. Michelle displayed such consideration throughout the entire process. She is helping me organize other personal items and has great suggestions for organizing many different items such as clothing, shoes, pictures, and household items.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
A typical 3-hour hands-on organizing session for clients who are quick to make decisions offers enough time to complete a small project such as a pantry or reach-in closet. Larger spaces in the home, paperwork, or business offices typically require more than one hands-on organizing session. For clients working with a small budget or tight timeline, I assign "homework" that can be completed between sessions.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
When I arrive onsite, I like to have the client take me on a tour of their home or office space. Along the way, we discuss what is and is not currently working, as well as what the client envisions as the ideal scenario for each space. I share several ideas for how we might rework the space to solve some of the major organizing dilemmas, and we create a plan of action. From there, we roll up our sleeves and get started by working side-by-side in 3-hour blocks of time. We sort, purge, adjust our plan as needed, and finally reorganize the space in one (or more) hands-on organizing sessions. After each work session, I take away any purged items slated for donation (or make alternate arrangements if necessary) and send the tax receipt to the client.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I am an active member of the National Association of Productivity and Organizing Professionals, as well as Faithful Organizers. Through continuing education and research, I stay on top of the latest organizing products and trends.
