Meet Your Home Organizer
The Start
A Seed is Planted
In grade school, I went on my first camping trip in a friend’s backyard. I woke up in the middle of the night, certain there was a wild animal outside. Terrified and convinced that even breathing would give me away, I eventually ran back to the safety of the house.
No one else was awake for hours, so I did what felt natural: I organized my friend's bedroom for fun. What began as a childhood way to deal with stress turned into a lifelong self-care practice. Back then, I didn’t yet realize how much an organized environment impacts our quality of life.
The Progression
Bud to Blossom
In 2013, I worked as a nanny for a professional couple who had everything except enough time. Their home was a constant reminder of a life moving too quickly to keep up with. I started organizing to make my job easier, and the family experienced less stress before the day even began.
That lesson stayed with me in caregiving. I once worked for a 97-year-old founder whose home was a masterclass in intentionality. She knew exactly where everything was; her belongings played supporting roles in her life, not obstacles. Whether helping palliative clients through grief or helping a family find the floor again, my purpose remained the same: when life gets overwhelming, home can be a place to find rest.
The Evolution
Spreading Seeds
My curiosity about intentional living grew into an obsession. I consumed everything I could find on various organizing methods, minimalism, Swedish Death Cleaning, and the KonMari Method®. When I moved to a new area, I connected with Lisa, an experienced home organizer sixty miles away, and joined her team. The hours spent commuting and working in different homes introduced me to the many reasons people hire organizers and the unique challenges they face. I learned that anyone can become organized with the right guidance.
The Foundation
My Philosophy
Our homes are mirrors, reflecting our internal state and how we move through the world. I believe organizing is an act of stewardship; it’s about caring for the things that support our lives so they can do their job well.
My goal is to help you own only what you need, love, and find beautiful. When you remove the excess, you reclaim the time and mental space to focus on the people and pursuits that truly matter.
Going through this process alone can be intimidating, which is why I created Farewell Clutter Co. — to help you build a better relationship between yourself, your belongings, and your home.
