Title: You’re Never Too Young to Organize

Bio: Lauren is passionate about people and was born to help others get organized! After a decade in the Fine Arts industry, living in New York, London, and Los Angeles, she relocated to San Francisco and started Let Me Organize It in June 2014.

In early 2021, she teamed up with her best friend, a busy working mom of two littles, and started Get Littles Organized. Through Instagram, they help overwhelmed parents build their A-team to tackle the chaos and clutter on a daily basis. They teach parents that littles as young as 1-year old can build organizing skills and begin to help out around the house.

Lauren’s other professional interests include public speaking, local volunteer opportunities, and developing courses. Lauren earned her CVPO® in 2020 and her CPO® in 2021. When she’s not working – who are we kidding, she’s always working – she can be found distracting herself on Instagram or with her guilty pleasure, binge watching anything on Bravo!
