     --How long ago was the work done?
  3. Work with a company that is bonded and insured.
  4. Check their web site.

Meet Cheryl

      I began my organizing business in 2002 and am a proud member of the National Association of Professional Organizers (NAPO). I operate from the simple philosophy - Many people can benefit from professional help when it comes to organization. Even those capable of doing this on their own are much more likely to tackle what they may otherwise consider an unpleasant task with the aid of a professional. My greatest organizing strength is the fact that being organized is a way of life for me, not an acquired skill. I have been able to define this skill so that I may share it in a meaningful way with others. My B.S. degree in Education, M.S. in Computer Management, 10 years experience as a teacher of computer classes for adults, and 25 years working as a computer specialist for the federal government makes it easy for me to encourage lasting organizational changes with my clients. I attempt to break down ideas and communicate them in a way that my clients can easily understand and put to use in their own lives.
