About
Creating Space
Opening up your time, energy and physical space to allow more room to live, create and enjoy life.
-
Creating Space was built on a simple belief: your home should make your life easier, not heavier. My approach is gentle, judgment-free, and designed around what feels peaceful and functional for you. I help you create clarity, reduce overwhelm, and build systems that actually last.
In addition to organizing, I bring a diverse set of skills that enhance the work I do. I am a professional house painter, which allows me to see spaces holistically, understanding how color, finish, and light affect the feel and function of a room. This background helps me create environments that are not only organized, but visually calm and cohesive.
I also hold a degree in accounting, which adds a structured, detail-oriented approach to my work. It supports my ability to create efficient systems, manage projects thoughtfully, and approach organizing with clarity, logic, and long-term sustainability in mind.

My love for organizing and designing spaces began when I was very young. Creating order, simplifying rooms, and making spaces feel intentional has always come naturally to me, long before it ever became a profession.
One of my earliest memories is visiting my dad’s office when I was around six years old. He was an Army recruiter, and while others might have found it dull, I loved organizing desks, straightening paperwork, and creating systems that made the space feel more functional.
At home, I was always reorganizing my brothers’ rooms, lining up Hot Wheels, arranging stuffed animals, and creating simple systems. As I grew older, that instinct followed me into the kitchen, where I regularly reorganized my family’s space. Even after moving out, I would return to my mom’s house and reorganize her kitchen simply because it brought me joy.
As an adult, friends naturally began asking for my help. I was often invited into their homes to organize, redesign, and create calmer, more functional spaces. What started as something I loved doing in my own home became something others trusted me to do in theirs.
Over time, it became clear that my lifelong passion for organizing and design was always meant to evolve into my work. Creating spaces that feel calm, intentional, and supportive isn’t just what I do, it’s part of who I am.
Through Creating Space, I help clients feel more at ease in their homes by transforming cluttered or overwhelming areas into spaces that are functional, peaceful, and easy to maintain.

-- Alexandra, 2019 - 2024“We hired Alice to organize our garage. Alice showed up with creative solutions and was great at executing. Were busy with two toddlers and just couldn’t manage it ourselves. She’s punctual, professional, courteous and fun! She got the job done on time and on budget!”
— Grace, 2023“Alice was exceptional at helping my family set up after the CZU fires. Her ability to see a blank space and help me create a very functional organized space with warmth was amazing. I needed her in a pinch and she showed up timely, hardworking, and a with clear sense of what needed to happen . Alice is a woman with a big heart and soul … you will be glad you hired her.”
— Cecile, 2022"Working with Alice helped me feel confident about taking on tasks that had previously felt daunting. She knew how to come into a space and systematically understand what was needed and gave me options about the best way to move forward. I think her super power was making it fun! I love the feeling of having the project off my shoulders. What a relief.”
— Amber, 2023“My husband is the LEAST organized person on this planet and when I moved into his home, finding my own space was a challenge. We’re beyond grateful to Alice who came in, and helped us recreate our home to fit both of our needs. For example, in our kitchen she helped us label, sort and streamline all of our kitchenware and even created extra storage for items that we didn’t use everyday (which was non-existent before she started the job). When I initially moved into my husband’s home, it felt so overwhelming. But with Alice’s expertise, grace and understanding of what our everyday needs were, it made the move SO much easier. She helped transfer his prior bachelor pad into our forever home! We can’t recommend her enough for any organization project needed!”
— Nicole, 2025“Alice was a godsend during our move to Monterey! I was pregnant and had a toddler, moving into a smaller house with less storage, and extremely overwhelmed until she walked through the door. I appreciate how thoughtful and practical she is; in situations where I thought we needed to get rid of or replace things, she found new, efficient ways to use them. I highly recommend Alice to anyone needing help organizing, designing, or creating their space!”
— Amanda, 2021This is just your friendly reminder that
YOU CAN DO HARD THINGS!
When you feel like you are overwhelmed with something in your house, think about how great it will feel when it's done.
How good it will be to have the clutter put away...
...to have clear counters in your kitchen
...to have the laundry all folded...
...or whatever your goal is!

I'm ready to cheer you on!
With love,
Alice
