Metrozing Team

**Kara**

	A North Carolina State graduate, Kara is an experienced professional organizer who believes that getting organized is a healing and transformative process. As a Metropolitan Organizing Team Lead, her goal is to move mountains for clients and make their day-to-day lives easier, healthier, and more focused on what's truly important to them. Beyond the joy she takes in creating peaceful spaces for clients, she loves finding out how they "tick" in order to better coach them with tips and tricks for living a simpler, more organized, and more fun life. Kara is a devoted German Shepherd owner, and in her free time she enjoys cooking, reading, cycling, and gardening. [Professional affiliations: NAPO, NAPO-NC]

**Leslie**

	Leslie has been organizing things all of her life. Even as a child, she would organize closets and cans in the pantry ("Yes, my parents were a little bit concerned!"). She grew up outside Washington DC, graduated from the University of Maryland at College Park with a Hearing and Speech Sciences degree, and has held a variety of positions that have enhanced and strengthened her organizational skills. Those skills are honed every day as she manages a family of six. Leslie too experiences the challenges of maintaining order in her own family life—both from the working and stay-at-home-mom perspectives. She has developed numerous systems for time management, paperwork, and organizing. She enjoys passing these skills and strategies along to her clients. [Professional affiliations: NAPO]

**Molly**

	Molly is a native North Carolinian who enjoys being part of the Metropolitan Organizing Team. Clients know her as an energetic, hard worker who helps them achieve their organizing goals in a smooth and efficient manner. She provides the invaluable service of being the "extra pair of hands" on team organizing jobs. Molly is a graduate of Peace and Meredith Colleges. She lives in Raleigh with her husband and two daughters.

**Susan**

	Susan has been organizing herself and others for years and now enjoys organizing for a living. She's seen firsthand how decluttering and getting organized can transform people's lives in positive ways, and she strives to bring the benefits of a calm and productive life to as many people as possible. Susan has experience working with people who have the challenge/gift of ADHD and likes to use her knowledge to help individuals and families establish simple systems that are easy to maintain. Susan has an undergraduate degree in music from East Carolina University and a Master's in Communication from the University of Delaware. When she's not helping people get organized, she spends time with family, roots tirelessly for the Carolina Hurricanes, and is the piano player/director of a contemporary choir at her church.

She loves sorting, color coding, labeling and just about anything else to make life more organized. Jennie also has a passion for the environment, and encourages reducing, reusing and recycling. While raising her soon-to-be teenage daughter and spending many years on the PTA, Jennie went back to school and received her two-year degree at Wake Technical Community College. She also enjoys reading, traveling, and do-it-yourself home projects.

**Megan**

	Megan's background in project management and customer service contribute to her being a take-charge kind of organizer, capable of managing projects, both large & small. While she's the most youthful expert on our team, she's the most well travelled (23 countries so far!). Her enthusiasm and cheerful disposition endear her to clients of all ages. When Megan's not globetrotting, her hobbies include working with paper crafts such as stamping, custom card making, and scrapbooking.
