The Clutter Angel
Karen Kaye
I was raised in the Hollywood Hills in a house filled with family antiques, yellowed ancestral papers, leather bound books, and decades of photos...my parents never threw away anything. I indulged in every hobby and do-it-yourself project known to mankind, and by age eight, I was reconciling my parents’ checkbooks and reorganizing their home library using the Dewey Decimal System.
I entered California State University Northridge as a math major, with an eye toward an architecture, and graduated with a degree in art. Following graduation, while pursuing my art dreams and promoting sales of my soft-sculptures, my astrology hobby evolved into a newspaper column.
After working 20+ years as a freelance writer and personal bookkeeper, I returned to my childhood roots origins of organizing —so began The Clutter Angel-- before personal assistants, professional organizers and life coaches were household terms. (I like to think I started these trends and the world caught on.)
Today, with VIRTUAL access, I can go anywhere via the internet. In person, I predominantly share my unique organizational abilities with clients throughout the West Coast and the East Coast.
