I’ve always seen the world a little differently—where others see chaos, I see potential. With a natural eye for detail, a passion for design, and a creative approach to problem-solving, I’ve built a career around helping people bring order, beauty, and ease to life’s transitions. As a small business owner and seasoned real estate professional, I’ve learned that success is rooted in relationships, trust, and thinking outside the box.
Time and time again, I’ve heard the same question from clients: “How am I going to manage the overwhelming process of packing and moving?” I understand just how emotional and stressful this process can be—especially when it’s layered with big life changes. That’s why I created PLACED Chicago—to meet that very need with a thoughtful, hands-on solution. By blending my experience in real estate with my skills in organization, logistics, and styling, I offer comprehensive moving and organizational management services that simplify every step—from prepping your home for the market to setting up personalized systems in your new space.
While I spent the bulk of my career in marketing and corporate communications, I have always had an interest in and passion for style and organizing. What began as a love language for those close to me, has evolved to be the next chapter in my career. By partnering with Heather Siegel, the founder of PLACED Chicago, I’ve been able to combine my professional expertise in communication, project management, and strategic planning with my personal experience in organizing and managing life’s transitions. From supporting loved ones through various moves including to and from college, into apartments, and downsizing to assisted living, I’ve found a fulfilling way to apply my skills to help others in a way that’s meaningful and practical.
By focusing on decluttering and staging, I help create a space that looks inviting, feels spacious, and showcases your home’s best features. A well-staged home not only makes a great first impression but also tends to sell faster and often at a higher price.
Once the sale is underway, I handle every detail to make your transition to your new home as smooth and stress-free as possible. But my services go beyond just the move itself. I believe in helping clients settle into a more organized, functional space. From sorting and decluttering so only cherished and necessary items are moved, to coordinating with movers and managing schedules seamlessly, I ensure nothing is overlooked.
Upon arrival at your new home, I establish tailored organization systems that keep everything running smoothly from day one. My goal is to turn the chaos of moving into a seamless, manageable process. Drawing on my expertise in real estate, organization, and design, I take the burden off your shoulders so you can focus on the excitement and possibilities of your new chapter.
Let me handle the details while you enjoy the comfort and ease of a well-planned move and an impeccably organized home.
