Hillary is a compassionate listener and strives to provide the best overall organizing experience for each individual client; with the hands-on work and the long-term maintenance. She knows instinctively and understands that the unique needs of those she works with is imperative to their organizing success. Her desire to find creative and unique organizing solutions with her clients is what drives her passion to learn and continually add to her ever growing and expansive list of skills.
Since beginning her career in professional organizing with Living Peace in 2010, Hillary has always been eager to learn skills and techniques that best help her clients. Through her extensive work with chronically disorganized clients Hillary was encouraged to participate in the Institute for Challenging Disorganization’s program for the credential of Certified Professional Organizer in Chronic Disorganization (CPO-CD), which she earned in 2013.
Hillary currently spends the majority of her time as a full-time mom of two children. When not chasing and caring for her children, Hillary enjoys doing small home décor projects including painting old picture frames. She offers virtual organizing services on a limited basis at this time.
