"Laura assisted us in creating a database to store important information for our business. Laura guided us in finding pocket pc's that have virtually changed our professional and personal lives and the way we organize. Laura was very patient with us as we moved from having little scraps of paper all over our desks to having critical information at our fingertips whenever our clients have a request. Thanks Laura. The benefits of your service and expertise are immeasurable."

"Every day I walk into my back bedroom and feel as if I have a new home. What a difference 8 hours of uncluttering can do to a room. It's awesome - and a pleasure to spend time there now. It has also given me the push to make sure the rest of my place is up to snuff." Your very loyal fan!

- Michelle Graunke...
"The work Laura has done for us has required her to design and implement a process for the project, to listen well to our needs, goals and limitations, to work closely with members of our staff and to provide us with a plan of action we would undertake after our work with her was complete. I always had complete confidence in her leadership and management. In my interactions with outside vendors, I would rank Laura's level of service in the top 1%!

Cheryl's Delighted Clients
“Kate & Cheryl were wonderful to work with. Not only do they have endless energy, but they weren't even slightly fazed by the scope of the job (a nice way of describing my horrendous mess). They were methodical, thorough, & had lots of great ideas for organizing my garage. I knew what I wanted the end product to look like, but no idea how to get there. Kate & Cheryl did - thank goodness!
- KP., Carnation, WA.
“Cheryl is a wonderful worker, great to work with, and easy to work with doing work that is both difficult and exhausting! I am grateful to be able to work with her. When we finish our 3, 36-hour packages together, we will have accomplished an amazing feat, doing what it would normally take moving to accomplish! Though an investment, I’m sure it is less costly than a move! Thanks for your hard work, your creative ideas, and your pleasant disposition!”
- Mary Lou, Kirkland, WA.
Cheryl joined Eliminate Chaos in 2011 after several years with the Bellevue College Interior Design Program. It was here that she kept the product/resource library running efficiently and well organized. She is an alumnus of the Bellevue College Interior Design Program where she studied art, architecture, commercial and residential design. Throughout her studies and while managing the resource library, she learned the value of selecting the proper materials for a project relating to function, sustainability and aesthetics.
One of Cheryl’s many passions is planning, remodeling, and organizing spaces, for clients, friends and in her own home. During the past few years, she has helped her parents “age in place” in their Seattle home which has been an educational opportunity for Cheryl, while her parents have benefited from her design and organizational skills. Her passion for organization goes hand in hand with her design skills. She believes that "good design does not survive in clutter."
Cheryl has over a decade of visual merchandising and retail management experience along with a strong belief that stellar customer service should be the norm, not the exception. She looks forward to working with you on your organizing projects to create beautifully designed, high functioning spaces. In the process you will experience her exceptional commitment to customer service and communication along the way.
When Cheryl is not busy picking out new paint colors for the walls, laying tile, reorganizing the junk drawer or labeling bins in the garage, she loves to spend time traveling with her husband or having a girl’s weekend away anywhere it is sunny and warm. She has two grown children, and is looking forward to someday becoming a grandmother, but she is in no rush.
