“I really can't tell you how much I appreciate your time, attention, and expertise. It was really lovely getting to experience you "in action." I feel hopeful and encouraged, recognizing that I am more capable of getting organized than I was giving myself credit for.” Kristen G.
“My email inbox had become an energy drain and something I wanted to avoid as it clogged up. When I went into the course, my Gmail account was 99% full and after the course, that was cut in half AND I now have the know-how to eliminate even more unwanted emails. Best of all, Starr & Sherri made the classes comfortable, FUN and we celebrated our success!” [Email Ease Workshop] K. Asbury
“Sherri is clearly passionate about organizating and encourages you to think in new ways that make overwhelming projects seem manageable. She recently presented at one of our POWER events to an audience of 70 strong Portland leaders, doers, and thinkers. She keeps the audience engaged with interactive exercises and prizes! Sherri has a gift with organization and really gets to the root so that you can stay organized longer term and with less effort!

“I highly recommend Sherri if you are struggling with home organization. I struggled with mail piling up on the counter and she gave me some great practical, easy tips for figuring out how to sort, manage and put my mail where it belongs, rather than just moving the pile to another room. She recognizes that there isn't a one-size fits all organizational solution, and gets to know you and a bit about your lifestyle in order to come up with a solution that works for you. She is very insightful, creative and makes getting more organized fun. She is definitely a joy to work with!” Dawn J.

"Wow Sherri, I just had a chance to read this [December 2017 blog]. Not only are you a gifted organizer, you are a gifted writer as well! That was just beautiful. It was such a tight schedule and so many things could have gone wrong. I felt so fortunate to be involved around the edges of what you did for Lynn and her mom:)"
-Marianne Thelin, Realtor, The Meadows Group
"I’ll say Miracles do Happen! I remember how challenging it was to find someone to help us and feeling rejected. I remember first meeting you and just giving you a hug for showing up. I was so scared we would scare you. Thank you for being humble enough to dig in right alongside us and giving us the support and encouragement to keep going. And for giving strong pushes when they were needed. Thanks again for your excellent work."

From analyzing the situation to designing an improved and smart outcome, she has shown me my home and home office can move up a notch in looks and organization without appearing too "fixed."
