Hi, I’m Laura, and I was born an Organizer.
While many people discover organizing later in life, my passion began when I was about four years old. My early childhood room was full of toys and books everywhere, until one day, something clicked. I sorted, categorized, and put everything away. From that moment on, my room never returned to chaos. That early instinct for order, clarity, and systems has guided me ever since. Before founding An Organized Project, I began my professional career as a ballet dancer in New York, where I developed discipline, precision, and an eye for detail. These are skills that deeply influence how I manage projects and guide clients today. Now, with decades of experience, I help clients navigate everything from residential decluttering and home organization to downsizing, move management, and corporate space optimization. My goal is always the same: to reduce stress, restore control, and create systems that feel natural and easy to maintain. “We find purpose in making our clients' lives more manageable. My Team and I committed to earning their continuous confidence and trust.” ~ Laura Smith |
