Organization:


I am very detailed oriented and enjoy organizing anything possible to make life easier! Everything should have a proper place, proper storage container, and be properly labeled. All folders should be color coded by category as well as alphabetized in its category. I take pride after organizing things because it shows the hard work that was put in it to turn the mess into a space to be proud of because it is now nice, neat, and organized.
