About

I'm Valerie Ruha, the owner of Very Organized by Valerie.   I am a member of the National Association of Productivity and Organizing (NAPO), NAPO Minnesota and I currently serve on the Board of Directors as Treasurer of the Minnesota Chapter.  I have a certificate in Residential Organizing, and I have experience working with people with ADHD and Chronic Disorganization.  I also specialize in book and home library organization.

My love of organization and books came early on in my childhood.  I was often re-organizing my closet for fun.  And I loved trips to the library to bring home piles of books to read, laying each one out and deciding what order to read them in.  I went to college to major in English Literature and for many years I worked in bookstores, enjoying the process of organizing shelves and helping customers.  Later I went on to become a marketing professional and for the past 20 years I have managed the Operations side of the business, perfecting my organization at the business level.

In my spare time I'm a DIYer, an avid reader and love spending time with my family, friends and furry loved ones.

I'd love to show you how Very Organized by Valerie can help provide you the direction and tools you need to find a balanced and organized life.  Let's lighten up your space and reignite your happy home.
