home 
Your home should be a calming refuge from the hectic pace of modern life--
​but for many of us, our homes feel stressful, not soothing.
  • Feel overwhelmed by your "stuff"?
  • Want to get the most out of your living space--but unsure how to begin?
  • Does even the thought of tackling some spaces give you a headache?

I maximize the utility and visual appeal of any space in your home. No space too big or too small:
  • entryway     
  • kitchen
  • living and dining room
  • attic
  • basement
  • garage
  • closets
  • bedrooms
  • bathrooms
  • laundry room
  • den
  • storage spaces
Don't see your space listed above? I love a unique challenge: please get in touch! 
office
Has your work space stopped working for you? Please, let me help! I can configure your office or work area for ultimate productivity, freeing up time for the things you love: 
  • Find files and information in seconds
  • Put supplies and reference materials at your fingertips
  • Reduce unnecessary paperwork
  • Re-purpose existing furniture in creative, no- or low-cost ways
  • Maximize your comfort via appropriate seating and lighting
  • ... and more!
Work smarter, not harder. Together, we can make finishing your tasks easier, faster, and more pleasant!​
systems
I create systems to help your life run more smoothly. You name the task, we can collaborate to simplify it and reduce stress! Enjoy personalized systems that enable you to quickly:
  • Sort mail or email
  • Pay bills
  • Coordinate household calendars
  • Address your child's school paperwork
  • Access medical records or track a medical regimen
  • ​Plan meals and avoid costly food spoilage
  • Track home maintenance needs
  • ... and more!
TECHNOLOGY
I love making technology work for you! I can:
  • Organize computers, smartphones, and tablets, so you can easily find what you need
  • Create custom email filters, so important messages never get lost
  • Back up files to any form of digital storage, including external hard drives and cloud systems (e.g., iCloud, Google Drive) 
  • Manage music, so that your favorite songs appear when and where you prefer
  • Teach you to use relevant apps, websites, and software​
  • ... and more!

I can also arrange and coordinate services provided by other companies, including:
  • Secure shredding
  • Format conversion: for example, turning your print photos or home videos into high-quality digital files
  • Mass scanning: for large quantities of paper

Please be aware that other businesses (e.g., shredding, media conversion, and large-quantity scanning companies) have their own rates, in addition to my single hourly rate.
​children and teens
I have worked with children, teens, and young adults in multiple contexts, including:
  • providing counseling in elementary and high schools
  • teaching undergraduates as a teaching assistant at the University of Chicago
  • and, of course, as a professional organizer!

I enthusiastically support individual personalities and preferences. I enjoy helping people of all ages channel their energy to serve their success!
​Work with children and teens is also eligible for sliding scale discounts: every child, regardless of socioeconomic background, deserves access to organization skills.

I can work with you/your child on:
  • homework
  • school forms
  • backpacks
  • at-home work space for kids and teens
  • toys
  • prized possessions
  • playrooms
  • shared spaces​
  • you name it!

Please note that, while I hold a Master's degree in social work, I am not providing therapy. My services are not a replacement or substitute for your or your child's clinicians. My organizing services are not a treatment for ADHD, anxiety, or other conditions.
preventing procrastination
I can help you prevent procrastination by structuring projects. These include completing school assignments, finishing a written work, or searching for a new job, among others.

Students of all ages can use my help to:​
  • Complete assignments on time
  • Organize homework, class notes, and school papers
  • Avoid "all-nighters" and last-minute crises​

Writers use my services to:
  • Create a reasonable writing schedule
  • Provide accountability for completing each portion of the work
  • Address "writer's block" and any other barriers to completion

Job seekers find job-hunting more manageable as I help to:
  • Assess potential job openings
  • Organize application materials
  • Manage application deadlines
  • Ensure timely responses to potential employers
​teaching
Do you want to learn:
  • Strategies for staying organized?
  • About apps, websites, and programs that can help your life run more smoothly?
  • How to set up your electronics, or fix tech problems when they arise?

I love sharing knowledge about living a streamlined life--and can make it fun! My lessons have been praised repeatedly for their humor and accessibility.

Sound impossible? Please, give me a chance to make you smile! 


New organizing tools come out every day. I'll teach you to use them like a pro!

"My husband and I have had great success
enlisting the help of a professional organizer [Steven] to assist in making sense of our respective home offices.  

Imagine our surprise, however, when our sons started asking if Steven ... could please come and help them with messes in their own rooms...
So Steven came on a Sunday and spent an hour with each of our children.  And
it was like watching a miracle worker..."
