Chapter Board of Directors

Carrie Noel-Nosbaum, Carrie It Away LLC

(240) 766-7909  |  president@dcorganizers.org

As a former High School Teacher, I am passionate about teaching people and encouraging them to free up their time and space for who and what they love. My process is all about setting my clients up for success and encouraging them along the way. Planning, Executing and Celebrating are the cornerstones to effective change.

I’m so grateful that I joined NAPO at the start of my Professional Organizing career in 2021. It’s a wonderful community that allows me to connect with others and continue my love of lifelong learning.

Elaine Weiss, Declutter for Good

(202) 468-3407 | vicepresident@dcorganizers.org

I grew up with lots of clutter, and I am not a naturally organized person, but I was also that friend (sister, guest) who would open your coat closet, packed floor-to-ceiling with stuff, and see immediately imagine how it could be cleared out and well organized. I always loved tackling a “messy closet,” just not my own.

Like many of us, during COVID, I grew to see how clutter was causing problems in my life. This led to my mid-career shift from policy analysis to becoming a professional organizer. I founded Declutter For good with the goals of 1) de-stigmatizing and taking the shame out of the clutter and disorder many of us live with, and 2) ensuring that my client’s “trash” is transformed into “treasures” benefitting their neighbors and community.

Since joining NAPO-DC in 2023, I have loved getting to know many members, and learned a lot from fellow organizers, meetings, and sessions. I look forward to engaging more deeply and making our Chapter even stronger!

Her clients have included diplomats returning from overseas deployments and posts, busy executives, new parents, new homeowners, recent widows and widowers, people with large volumes of heirlooms, and people who just want to thin out their possessions before a move or project.
