I am a professional organizer.
I run a business that provides space planning and organizing services. Being able to see beyond the clutter, visualize much better scenarios, and know how to make it happen is a gift that I don’t take for granted. My work directly impacts people’s lives. In turn, it gives meaning to my own life.
I am a community builder.
Amongst other endeavors, I chaired the relaunch of CAPT, co-founded ORIENTED.ORG, took ORIENTED.COM global, and am currently working to bring the Love Boat Alumni Initiative to life. At one point, I did throw in the towel and declared, “Never again!” But bringing people together is my calling. Resistance is futile.
2024 Speech – Love Boat Reunion:
I am a domain investor.
I have always been fascinated by the power of words. So when I stumbled upon the niche market of domain investing, I was hooked. The whole point of marketing is to establish brand recall. So why throw money into the bottomless pits of ad campaigns when you can own a domain name that people can remember on their own?
I am a writer.
One day, I would like to be a guest on Guy Raz’s How I Built This podcast. Until then, I am writing a book about my experience living abroad, how I built ORIENTED.COM and took it worldwide, and how the Love Boat Alumni Initiative weaves into the larger narrative. Sign up for my mailing list to receive my newsletter updates.
I am an INTJ.
For better or for worse, this article describes me to a tee. The mastermind trait serves me well when it comes to my long career as an organizer. But in terms of social norms, I often feel like I don’t quite fit in. Why can’t I just be normal, and do normal things? After giving this a lot of thought, my conclusion is – it ain’t easy being me.
I am a mom to a sweet little boy.
Well he’s not so little any more, but he is still very sweet.
I have one, weird, idiosyncrasy.
Whenever someone gives me a gift card to Starbucks or Peet’s, I get a little giddy and then laugh at myself for feeling this way. I can’t figure it out. Wanna try it and see for yourself?
Just push my button, bottom right.
