Art of Keeping

the creative practice of keeping your home, time, and self well

More Than Home Organizing

My organizing and consulting work is grounded in inclusivity, equity, and body liberation. I proudly affirm and support queer and trans people, gender-affirming care and expression, body diversity, reproductive choice, and racial justice.

Hi! I’m Angie (They/Them)

I’m here to destigmatize disorganization and help people create functional, calming spaces that reflect their values and creativity. Beyond physical spaces, I also help clients with time and task management, prioritization, and actionable strategies to create momentum and move life forward with confidence.

All are welcome, and I specialize in supporting neurodivergent, LGBTQIA+ individuals, and those facing chronic disorganization. This work is personal to me and my way of connecting to and positively impacting my community. I'm lucky to have all kinds of meaningful conversations with my clients, since interacting with our stuff can often bring up stories and challenging emotions. Ultimately, the immersive process of decluttering and streamlining our lives is about cultivating well-being and ease—after all, our environments directly shape our experiences.

With a background in teaching, visual arts, and house management, I bring both creativity and structure to every project. My approach combines years of professional organizing experience with ongoing engagement in neurodivergent and disabled communities, all grounded in empathy, body liberation, and deep respect for your expertise. While sessions with me offer collaborative guidance to tackle clutter mindfully and explore your preferences, not to worry—I’ll keep an eye on time and gently guide sessions to stay on track, ensuring we make the most of each one! 

The Art of Keeping is all about keeping your home, time, and self well- and I'm right there with you. 

Services 

Curated. Cozy. Caring.

Let me help you tackle clutter, doom piles, and projects of all sizes with practical organizing strategies and hands-on support. If you have an ADHD brain, are autistic, or experience anxiety, you might find it challenging to get started on tasks, prioritize, or manage your time effectively. I’ll work with you to create systems that make it easier to find, put away, and keep track of your things. Together, we’ll use options like co-working (or body doubling) and setting up routines that fit your needs, helping you build better self-care, time management, and work habits—so your space feels calm, organized, and supportive of how you live.

Why I do this Work

I love helping people reimagine their time, space and energy. Everyone deserves a space that feels safe, comforting and truly their own. Together, we’ll lighten your load and build systems that support your priorities, so your space works for you—not the other way around.

Your Partner in Calm,
Angie

Clients are saying...

Angie's thoughtfulness and attention to detail have been tremendous assets. With countless projects, I've started with an idea of what I wanted to achieve, but no idea how to get there. Angie has always come up with a customized approach that reflects the unique needs of my household. They also can reimagine a space and see opportunities to organize and streamline that just seem to inherently work for me. There's a lot of expertise that goes into understanding how to break apart a problem and design tailored options, and Angie has those skills in spade.

After a visit from Angie, I always feel like I can breathe again. My "to do" list often seems to grow longer by the day, but they manage to take projects that seem difficult or hard to approach off my plate. Not only that, but Angie finds a way to make them scalable and manageable so I can maintain them going forward. I also really appreciate that there's nothing that they won't tackle or try -- I very much feel like I have a partner in solving some of my difficult challenges.

Angie worked with our elderly mother on organizing and decluttering her apartment. Our mom was resistant to "outside assistance", can be tough to work with and did try to cancel every appointment. Angie was efficient, effective and a pleasure to work with. They kept the process moving forward even with mom's resistance through her respectful, gentle and firm professionalism. Angie provided a structure and system to tackle those areas that seemed overwhelming at first. We also appreciated their flexibility and positive energy. I highly recommend Angie and hope that I am able to work with her again in the near future.

Learning, Healing, and Growing Together

As a white, queer, nonbinary person living in a larger body, I’m committed to deepening my understanding of my own privileges and oppressions, continuing my personal healing, and contributing to the creation of a safer and more liberated society. Now, more than ever, we need community and the courage to support each other in our shared growth and liberation. I invite you to join me in creating spaces where we can heal, learn, and share resources together.
