"I never met a garage I didn't like..." Regina responded when asked why she wants to take on the mess and clutter of strangers.
Regina Lark has been organizing her own and other people's spaces for as long as she can remember. She loves mess, thrives on clearing clutter, and thoroughly enjoys helping people figure out what to do with their stuff and their lives.
Being organized was necessary when researching and writing her history dissertation. Thousands of pieces of data were neatly filed in boxes, with each box representing a chapter of her graduate thesis.
Her organizational skills are famous! Colleagues and family members regularly call on Regina for help with everything from reorganizing their kitchens, to spatial solutions for small corporate offices.
Clients enjoy working with Regina because she approaches each job holistically and without judgment. In many ways, clutter is the result of delayed decision-making. Once the piles build up it is hard to break them down. Disorganization is a reflection of our relationship to "stuff." It reflects how we were raised and how full we have made our lives. Regina can work with you and teach you how to make the best use of your space, your supplies, and your stuff!
If you have too much stuff, Regina will help you select a donation center. Our old "stuff" was made to be used. By allowing our unused things to be donated and used again, others can benefit from those things you no longer use. Removing the clutter and disorganization from our life not only benefits you, but others too. It's a win-win situation.
