About

I was my own first client

I became interested in organizing because I had to figure out how to get organized enough so that I could function well in my own life despite my inherent messiness. Much to my surprise, I discovered I was actually good at organizing, so I started my own business as a professional organizer in 2006.

With my background in nursing and education, I quickly began to focus on the root causes of my clients’ organizational challenges. I wanted to work with them in a way that would have a truly positive impact on their quality of life. I went on to specialize in working with people who are chronically disorganized or have ADHD, and I also became a certified coach.

Over the years, my business has slowly evolved, and now my primary service is phone coaching for people who struggle with organization and time management. Many clients have any combination of ADHD, depression and anxiety.

It’s important to me that I know my stuff. I believe I’m well qualified, but it makes for very dry reading. If you’re interested, you can visit the Qualifications page.

Volunteer Activities

Over the years, I’ve held volunteer positions in most of my different professional associations and at the time of this writing (2018), I am serving on the ADDA ADHD-at-Work Committee. I also do occasional projects with Rebuilding Together Peninsula and other nonprofit groups in my local community.
