Nancy & Tessfully Organized

About

When people ask me how long I’ve been organizing, the answer often surprises them. The truth is, I’ve been decluttering, rearranging, labeling, and filing since I was a child - influenced by my amazing mother, Tess.

For as long as I can remember, she had a healthy obsession for matching hangers, a foolproof method for managing paperwork, and a love for beautiful, functional spaces that were a refuge from the stress of daily life. When something was managed by Tess - from a pantry to a party - all was calm. And that influenced every part of my life, including the 35 years I spent with Paychex working with CPAs to sell and support 4000 small business clients. I built my success through their referrals, and they were always based on the same thing: I simplified their world so they could focus on what mattered most.

And that’s the same goal I have for Tessfully Organized, which I founded after my mother’s passing and named for her - the woman who gave me everything and taught me everything, including the restorative power of living well, and helping others do the same.
