About Us

Lorrie has lovingly been labeled “insanely organized.” She is a natural born organizer and has been organizing all of her life. As a child, her doll clothes were organized by article of clothing, and her doll house was always in perfect order, which aligned with her closet and clothes drawers! These skills followed her into the corporate world.

During Lorrie’s 15 year tenure in the financial industry, she was employed as a divisional and national trainer teaching time management and back office systems to financial advisors and their support staff. She also has one and a half years experience in the mortgage business. Lorrie has earned her Series 7, Series 63, and Group 1 licenses.

In addition, Lorrie has earned the Certified Professional Organizer, CPO® designation for successfully passing the inaugural exam at the NAPO Conference in April 2007. She has also completed the required courses and received certifications from clear and SIMPLE™ as a Certified Organizing Specialist and from Staged Homes as an Accredited Staging Professional™.

Working in the financial industry provided Lorrie with a strong knowledge and application of best business practices. She also received extensive experience developing training materials and policy manuals. Her experience as a business owner and founder of Creative Order & Design has also given her the skills, knowledge, and ability to provide training that will enable her clients to implement new systems successfully.

Lorrie’s passion is to teach others how to get and be organized using simple and easy-to-maintain systems. She prefers to work alongside the client in order to learn the client’s current organization processes and preferences. In order for the client to be able to understand and maintain new systems, she firmly believes that organization must be creatively customized for each individual client.
