Professional Organizer

certified environmental access consultant
I founded Vireo Home to develop functional, inspired spaces for living and working. You won’t find my unique blend of organizing, decorating, and accessibility services anywhere else.
I come to organizing from occupational therapy. My experience helping adults with disabilities regain function and independence in their homes taught me to see the potential in a space to improve how people can get things done.
Organizing allows me to solve problems and streamline things for other people, which I find deeply rewarding. My background also includes a degree in psychology and a lifelong practice of art.
I strongly believe our surroundings affect our well-being, and that makes it important to get right.
I live in Chicago with my wife and if you have a large, friendly dog, I will try to take it home with me.
What's a vireo?
Vireo can mean “green; verdant” but also “lively and flourishing” in Latin, and helping people flourish is the heart of what I do, The name vireo also refers to a family of songbirds that tend to be olive and grey-ish in color.
My primary service area is Chicago and its near suburbs to the north and west, in a 10 mile radius from my office address (roughly to O’Hare). If you’re further away, gimme a shout anyway.
