Welcome to Revive Design
Revive Design is where my 18 years of Executive Recruiting, education in art and interior design, and an overall desire to own less stuff come together.
My focus is in three areas: design, organizing and career consulting. I enjoy creating spaces that inspire and make people feel good, and helping individuals through periods of transition. Minimizing our things is often a great place to start and something I am particularly motivated to help others with.
I'll work with you to create the space you need so you can get on with your journey. From organizing a closet, to selecting paint colors or helping refresh a resume, together we will customize a program for your unique situation.

A Few Things About Me
When it comes to organizing, I'm a big fan of the "less is more" concept and don't like the feeling of being overwhelmed by things. It took me a long time to figure out the power that my stuff can have on me.
For me, I edit regularly, keep a donate box on rotation, put items in a "free" pile in front of my house, and occasionally have a booth at the Alameda County Flea Market. I try not to bring new things into my home unless I can take some things out. That is what works for me.
We will find what works for you. Whether you want a cheerleader to help motivate you to declutter or simply need help organizing what you have, we'll work together to find the right balance.
Sustainability, recycling and repurposing are always considered. Part of the fun is discovering new uses for items or finding new homes for them. Everything has a home, it just might not be in yours.
I am a member of NAPO, the National Association of Productivity & Organizing Professionals. You can learn more here.
Helping others always feels good and I donate a percentage of revenues to non-profits. Two that are near and dear to me are MeWater Foundation and Stage Write.
I live in the East Bay with my long time partner, Josh. We have three cats, two goats and lots of vinyl records. I started taking ballet as an adult (very humbling), love exploring the trails of the East Bay Regional Parks and am regularly working on our own DIY and organizing projects.
You can read more about me and some of my stories on my blog, Creative Career Detour or visit me on social media.
