Helena Alkhas – Your Home Organization Expert

Hello and Welcome!

Hi, I’m Helena, and I love to declutter and organize homes, turning them into beautiful, functional spaces you love.

I’m a mother of twins + 1, former Navy wife, and since 2001, I have moved and traveled with my family around the globe and back several times.

All that packing and unpacking taught me to simplify, live clutter-free, and be intentional about every decision. The distance from my loved ones taught me to focus on what matters and enjoy our time together.

I started organizing professionally when a fellow mom from my kids’ kindergarten, on the verge of a family crisis due to her clutter, asked me for help.

I soon realized then that my skills – acquired, both personally and professionally – were positively impacting her personal life.

So, in 2010, I decided to start organizing professionally and founded A Personal Organizer offering home organizing services to busy mothers overwhelmed by packed calendars, cluttered homes, helping them make life simpler.

I have been their secret weapon, allowing them to enjoy their homes, focus on their work, and build a home life they love.

THE GOOD OLD BIO

Helena’s ten years of experience as an international corporate manager and later as a stay-home mother of three boys has given her a deep understanding of how having an organized space benefits both professionals and families.

She believes that organization leads to a less stressful, more enjoyable, and prosperous life.

Married to a gynecological oncologist/US Navy officer, Helena understands the needs caused by relocations and the urgency we feel to settle ourselves and our families.

Organization has always been a part of Helena’s lifestyle, and it has helped her achieve both professional success and personal balance. It also allowed her to help family and friends with at-home orderliness.

Helena is a lifelong learner and believes her training through the ICD (The Institute for Challenging Disorganization), and NAPO (National Association of Organizing and Productivity Professionals) gives her a deeper and broader understanding of the needs of her clients.

Her training allows her to work with what works for them to become and stay organized, allowing them to enjoy a better quality of life and thrive.

Helena is enthusiastic, non-judgmental, and passionate about her work. She loves working with people, no matter where they are in life.
