MEET A FEW OF OUR VALUED TEAM MEMBERS:

Barbara+Hall

JAMIE PEREIRA, CPO®

EXPERT CERTIFIED ORGANIZER

After more than 18 years working in marketing for high-tech companies Patricia decided she was ready for a new challenge and something more fulfilling than what her corporate career had to offer. She had always dabbled in property management from owning apartments to flipping homes and home renovations along with Estate Management all of which she enjoys. Patricia soon realized there was a real need in the Los Angeles area for a Home Maintenance Manager. She found that people were either too busy to keep up with the repairs and renovations but desired to have preventative maintenance or were tired of dealing with contractors and staff that were not doing a good job. She decided to venture down the path of helping home owners manage their properties, repairs and renovations on a full-time basis.

Patricia started building additional relationships with vendors who could provide key services such as general contractors, HVAC, gutter repair and maintenance, plumbers, electricians, landscapers/gardeners, and housekeepers. The next step was to create a comprehensive home management program that would be customizable for each client.

Today, Essential Home Maintenance partners with Creating Clarity® to manage a growing list of homes providing clients with comfort and security knowing their home and investment are being protected. Whether it’s changing light bulbs or handling furnace repairs, Essential Home Maintenance keeps Creating Clarity’s clients happy and their homes operating efficiently.

TERRA KING

EXPERT ORGANIZER & PERSONAL STYLIST

Terra is originally from Joshua Tree, CA. Before organizing she worked for a non-profit fashion production company in San Diego where she developed a passion for shining light on fashion being an art form and a way to speak to the world with the unspoken language of personal style. In the fashion industry Terra had to put her organizational skills to use when staffing shows with models, managing the pulling of designer pieces in congruence with the photographers, organizing timing and schedules for both front and back of the house during the day of a runway show.

Specialty: clothes, closets, shoes & all things fashion of course! Terra is also known for putting together outstanding paperwork management systems. No matter what project Terra is tackling she does it with efficiency, focus & a touch of dry humor.

In her spare time, Terra is an enthusiastic hair artist, runs social coordination for an adult kick-ball league and is the creator/co-president of a philanthropic driven ‘Girl Gang Goes’ group geared towards woman supporting other women.

AMANDA AVILA


EXPERT ORGANIZER

Amanda is a LA native, born and raised in the San Fernando Valley.  Before organizing she worked as a cook in the restaurant industry which is where she first developed a love for keeping things organized. The French term “mise en place”, meaning everything in its place, is used in kitchens to define having all of your tasks, ingredients and tools in order to make your job go smoothly.  This method of thinking lead Amanda to working as an organizer.

Specialty: Needless to say Amanda’s specialty is organizing kitchens but she also thoroughly enjoys working garage spaces and helping clients with their tech needs. Amanda brings a fresh eye to each session and has a personality that will make you feel like you’ve known her for years.

In her spare time Amanda loves spending time with her dogs and watching a good hockey game “Go Kings Go!” and her favorite holiday is Halloween.
