Testimonials
"Kate’s skill for organization is extraordinary. In just a couple of weeks, she made sense of 50 years of accumulated props and furniture and left us able to find what we needed with room to walk through the collection. She also organized our hand tools and several cabinets of hardware (hinges, bolts, wheels, etc.). Now we can find the hardware we have on hand instead of buying new for every project. Kate has saved us considerable time and money by making our materials more accessible." ~ Carl S., Montclair Operetta Club
"Kate first came to help me in my shop after a terrible flood which affected two floors of costumes, vintage clothing, and props. She singlehandedly turned chaos into order. After experiencing her clean-out and organizational expertise, I hired her for several other projects throughout the rest of nearly 7000 sq. ft. of our shop. It was the smartest decision I ever made!" ~ Dan S., On Cue Costumes
"What I love about Kate is her understanding that not all organizing schemes work for all people or industries. In my experience with Kate, we plowed through cabinets and closets, all filled with a huge range of materials - old files, office supplies, party decorations, knickknacks, and some amazing discoveries. Kate recognized that organizing my office meant transforming it into something that I could maintain, not something overly meticulous with a bin for every color of highlighter. Kate asked me questions like, “Do you need this, or is it trash? What kind of other things does this get used with? Is this an everyday thing or a twice-a-year thing?” Now, I am able to ask myself the same questions when I see my office or workspace starting to get cluttered. Last but not least, the office cleanup led to some amazing finds, some pieces of history, and some art work that had been collecting dust in a corner, all of which Kate recognized and researched so that it would not get lost again. Thanks to Sort & Store, my office is organized (STILL!) more than two years later with a road laid out to keep it that way!" ~ Nicholas VH., Westminster Arts Center
"Kate is a godsend! After some unfortunate circumstances left our costume and prop storage in disarray, Kate not only sorted through the chaos but also created an organizational system that allows us to continue to grow and expand. I can now find exactly what I am looking for in a matter of seconds and have a plan in place to continue along this path. Further, Kate is completely judgment free and a true pleasure to work with. I highly recommend!" ~ Lindsay M.
VIRTUAL CLIENT: "Don’t wait. Hire Kate. It’s that simple - as simple as her perfectly curated systematic approach to organization. Not only is Kate exemplary at assisting individuals and, in my case, couples, with the logistical and practical elements of the organizational process (how to see what you have, what you need, how to edit, etc.), but also, and most importantly, guiding people emotionally through the process. I knew emotions were wrapped up in the clutter, but once a person learns how to unclutter one part (whether it be the emotions first or the physical things), the rest unclutters with it! For us, old habits were seriously ingrained, but whenever we have gotten off track, we have implemented Kate’s techniques and have had no issue returning to an orderly 1-bedroom apartment in NYC. That's the best part of working virtually with Kate. She guides you, cheers you on, brainstorms and problem solves with you, but we had to touch, feel, move, everything ourselves. This made it so much easier for us to remember where and how we want things to live. Everything has a home. Nothing is overwhelming anymore. We actually look forward to putting items back in their place! Kate is thoughtful, kind, patient, and goes with the flow of the folks she works with. We are forever grateful and you will be too! Don’t wait. HIRE KATE!" ~ Kierstyn S.
