Organize and Stage Your Home is a LLC, insured and licensed organizing and staging business owned and managed by Teresa James, Professional Organizer and ASP Home Stager. For 25 plus years, I worked full-time as an Organizer and Senior Project Leader in the corporate world of International Paper, also working part-time as a Residential Organizer. I retired from IP when I started my own business as a full-time Residential Professional Organizer, when I realized I enjoyed the residential organizing locale the most.

Though time spent with my clients is fun and supportive, I take my educational requirements very seriously. I believe in continuing education to understand my clients better and to expand my knowledge. Without education, how can one understand the vast differences among clients and their needs and be able to generate ideas and options? I have over hundreds of hours of education.

Combining outstanding, practical experience with education and offering  a wide range of residential/business organizing, relocating, and staging services, my clients receive exceptional value for their time and money (just read my testimonials!). Highlights of my credentials are as follows:
