Elise Marinos is the proud owner of Drab to Fab Organizing. She got her start as a Human Services professional and then leveraged her organizational skills and proven talent for design and streamlining processes to launch her own professional organizing company. It's not every day that you'll find a CEO who literally gets excited at the site of clutter and the opportunity to make a difference in someone else's environment. Even as a young girl, Elise was affectionately known, as 'the neat freak' of the neighborhood. Having grown up in a home with both a mother and a brother who struggled with ADHD, using these simple concepts for organization is what kept us all functioning and on track. By enabling clients to see blind spots, Elise helps them to look at spaces with fresh eyes, so old patterns and bad habits become a thing of the past. Elise is a distinct member of the National Association of Professional Organizers. She brings her eye for design to organization, making the results both functional and fabulous. Elise earned both a Bachelor's degree in Psychology and a Master's degree in Social Work at the California State University, Long Beach. In her down time, Elise likes to watch all the 'make-over' shows on HGTV (Home & Garden Television), creates beautiful flower arrangements, loves to dress up in stylish clothes, spends time with valued friends and has recently committed to become a fluent Spanish-Speaker by the end of 2012!
