About Amanda Gillies
“Amanda is detail oriented!! She can see issues and find solutions amazingly!! She was my answer!!” (Google review)
Dear Friend,
I’m Amanda and the owner of Proper Place Organizing. My background has been in Office Management, Accounting/Bookkeeping, Marketing, Hospitality, and Technical Theater. Think how many moving parts are involved in organizing an office or a show!
I understand the feeling of being overwhelmed – sometimes even I just want to sweep everything out the door, or close my eyes as I stumble around. Can you relate? I want to be doing things, not chores. I want to get things done quickly, not spend hours looking for what I need. Truly having less has made this easier. And having a proper place for everything has made all the difference.
Getting to know you and using my experience to curate the right solutions to meet your goals is why I do what I do. My commitment to efficiency in organization has led me to want to share the freedom I feel.
I’m about making attractive yet usable, livable, happy places.
For me it’s not about matching tea cups. It’s about friends, family and memories. But being my mother and grandmother’s daughter I have to have the matching tea cups too.
I look forward to working with you!
Amanda Gillies
