professional home organizing
a professional organizer in the making...
As I remember, it all began with my first Barbie and Midge dolls. Not knowing at the time when I would arrange their closet by color and pieces of clothing, and then face them all in the same direction I was actually editing and organizing. It so happened, growing up I shared a bedroom with two sisters, whom I must mention were clutter bugs. As history has it I was the one who perpetually cleaned and organized our shared living space. “Everything has a place, and everything goes in its place”! I loved seeing the closets and cupboards in our home clean and organized. Over the years I lived at home you could find me performing the job of a professional organizer. I would remove all the belongings from our linen closets, cupboards and pantries; even the garage just to clean and reorganize. For me, it meant there was order in my life.
Fast forward to today, I am in business doing what I love and comes naturally. No, not keeping Barbie and Midge dolls in the most current fashions with the best organized closet in the neighborhood. Though if I still had my girls, I would be tempted. Now I am helping others bring order to their lives by getting their homes, offices and small businesses decluttered and organized. In some cases, I keep them organized with scheduled annual or semi-annual sessions.
It is noted that Confucius once said, "Choose a job you love, and you will never work a day in your life". After many years of working in a lot of different industries, I finally landed in a profession I can totally immerse myself into and feel completely rewarded.
I am a long-time Alaska resident with a love for the state and the lifestyle it offers. I am business graduate from University Alaska Anchorage in marketing and management with an international option. I have over 30 years’ experience with brand and market development in food service and Alaska seafood industries. Though it seems a far reach from seafood to professional organizing, it is natural to be doing something I have a passion for. Since 2009, The Closet Divas aka, Life Organized has provided me opportunity to helping people with my organizing skills.
It is an honor to be invited into personal life situations. I am rewarded every time I bring order and simplicity to my clients lives.
