Tell us about Make Peace with Organizing and why you started the business. Make Peace with Organizing resulted from pursuing my passion for organizing, which meant leaving the legal field behind. I was an active attorney for eight years working in wireless communications. By 2018, I was burnt out. Today Make Peace with Organizing has 13 professional organizers helping clients declutter, organize and provide move management. We work with busy families to get their homes in order; we help small businesses organize inventory; we oversee the packing and unpacking for moves and we work with families when loved ones move into senior living communities.

What is something new you’ve learned as a business owner this year? I’ve believed for some time now that you’re only as good as the people you surround yourself with. This has been a year of growth, and I’m fortunate to have an amazing, caring and compassionate team who love what they do.

What do you love most about Marblehead, and why? There’s so much to do. The ocean, the walking/biking trails, the history, the restaurants — I’m fortunate to call Marblehead home.

What do you enjoy doing in your free time? In November, my husband and I will attend our third Dave Matthews Band concert this year.
