About me
I grew up in Fresno and moved to San Francisco in 1996 to attend SF State University, where I received a Bachelor’s degree in Art History. I fell in love with San Francisco and decided to make it my home.
My first "real" job when I was 16 was as a receptionist and administrative assistant. I found out very quickly that I was good at making order out of chaos. During and after my college years, I worked as an office manager for a couple of small businesses. I started working part-time as a Professional Organizer in 2001 and made it my full-time job in 2006. I have had the opportunity to work with a diverse clientele: small business owners, artists, therapists, corporate offices, actors, busy stay-at-home moms and dads, home-based business owners, a couple of world famous authors, teachers, retirees, elderly people, children, teenagers and the disabled.
I am licensed and insured and a member of the National Association of Professional Organizers.
Reviews from happy clients
I kept telling myself that I could organize the 'junk room' myself, but it had been getting worse over the past 15 years and I realized that I wouldn't ever do it. Laurie had the whole room organized and cleared out in 8 hours, she found several things I'd been looking for and even more things that I didn't want anymore. I should have done this years ago instead of just thinking about it all the time!

Laurie is a very competent organizer, able to prioritize and move through projects in a clear, efficient and creative way. She is also honest, thoughtful, and warm; a wonderful human being and a pleasure to work with. I recommend her highly; she can change elements in your home and office in ways that make life so much easier!

Each time Laurie comes to do organizing, I feel lightened, uplifted, and relieved that a certain area has been cleared up and organized. Laurie does work in my apartment, which requires energy and time I don't have. Laurie delves into any project I present to her with the same clear, calm focus, and seems actually gleeful to get started on a messy area I would consider daunting! She applies the same attention to even the tiniest articles.

Laurie was accurate, efficient, and totally trustworthy. She arrived on time, and she was fun to work with. She is not afraid to ask questions if she doesn't know. Highly recommended!

When Laurie handles organizational projects, she is incredibly time efficient, creative, and listens carefully. After a full assessment of what is needed, she has the ability to collaborate or independently manage and skillfully complete projects. Her non-judgmental and confidential approach and follow through is such reassuring value. I highly recommend Laurie’s organizational services!

Laurie has the rare combination of efficiency and calm execution of all her tasks. I enjoy her presence as she has a lot of tact in dealing with personal files. I would recommend Laurie to folks who value these qualities.
