I started organizing for a living in 2002 and have helped hundreds of clients on thousands of organizing projects in their homes. From kitchens, to garages, and every closet in between, I've been literally up to my knees in clutter and managed to survive. Every space I work in is unique but my approach is always the same because it works! I can't wait to share my experiences with you. I reside in Virginia with my husband and our three rescue dogs. We call our farm the Wayward Hound because it is a haven for the stray and misfit dogs who are such a big part of our lives.
