The transformation that occurs by clearing clutter and creating an organized space has always been a fascinating and satisfying experience for me.
All my life family, friends and acquaintances have called on me to declutter and organize their closets, offices, basements and homes. I have helped families move and prepared their homes for selling. It was not until I assisted a close friend in clearing her mother’s condo that my passion for estate clearing was realized. Estate Clearing allows me to take my hospice training and creative problem solving skills to a higher level.
With estate clearing and decluttering I can help people who are hurting by using skills that come naturally. That is the foundation of Clearing Chaos®, to help people in need with compassion, without judgement and with complete confidentiality.
Background
I graduated from Loyola University of Chicago with a major in art, minor in psychology. My passion for art, order and creative problem solving led me to become an owner of a graphic design firm in Chicago for 20 years. For two years I was a caregiver for my mom. Those two years were the most intimate, painful, and rewarding years of my life. During that time I found I had a great empathy for the terminally ill and their families. After that experience I trained as a hospice volunteer taking on the position of assistant to the co-coordinators of The Twilight Brigade – Compassion in Action, as well as, chairman of the Public Relations Committee.
I moved back home to Elmhurst to look after my father. Another amazing and intimate experience. After his passing, at the age of 90, I decided it was time to pursue my passion for clearing chaos.
