Dennis and I both are Michigan born and raised. We met in the summer of 1988 when we were teenagers, camping with our families for the Fourth of July Weekend and have been married for several years.
We enjoy traveling and camping together. We have two adorable miniature pinschers who keep us consistently entertained. We do our best to serve one another and love to be of service to others as well.
I’ve always held an affinity towards organization. I have always had an eye for detail, the big picture, and the satisfying end result.
It can be quite daunting and overwhelming, to say the least, when faced with an overabundance of ‘stuff’. To have the weight of all the memories and sentiment attached to it and to fear the empty space should it all disappear suddenly.
Truth is there is serenity and peace within that empty space. There is calm and confidence in a space where every single item has a home and a purpose. There is a sense of belonging and usefulness in an order filled home.
I’ve worked as a professional photographer, I ran a housekeeping business for nearly a decade, not to mention countless other hats I’ve tried on and worn for years at a time, including Birth Doula and Stand-Up Comedian.
These experiences have taught me:
- the art of gentle etiquette and how to handle sensitive and emotional situations with grace
- how to take difficult experiences and transform them into humor and joy
- how to work independently and to honor others who are placing their trust in me
- how to take initiative and possess the necessary confidence to produce incredible results
Throughout my life, I have done a lot of travelling and have had to edit and diminish a whole lot of “stuff” down to a backpack and a suitcase, several times over. Collectively, these experiences have led me to Professional Organization.
