What Our Students Say

After going through the Paper Filing Course I have finally ditched the clutter. My files are more spacious, there is a place for every piece of paper I need to keep. I know what I can let go of with out fear of needing it later. Changing my inbox system has revolutionized my office. Everything important has a prominent place with everything easy to find what I need when I need it. There are no longer piles of things to do on my desk. They have their place and I have a clean slate every time I sit down at my desk. I now get to choose what I want to work on first without fear of missing anything. I actually enjoy going into my office now. Thank you Terina.

I have to say that going through the Paper Filing Course really helped me with managing all the paper and with keeping my files up to date. Handling the mail as it comes through the door is brilliant!! I can actually see the top of my desk now. Terina made the sessions on Zoom easy to follow and I felt very comfortable speaking up with questions. I highly recommend the class. Two Thumbs Up!

About Terina

You can ask anyone who knows me, I was born with a PASSION for organization! By the time I was nine years old, I was already devising schemes to organize the contents of my room in a way that maximized accessibility, convenience, and space. Since then, I have been committed to helping others find joy in organization too – I am one of less than 10% of organizers who have attained their Certified Professional Organizer credential, along with my many other certifications! 

I started my Professional Organizing business in 2012 to help others reach their potential by decluttering and organizing their homes. Helping my clients create and maintain streamlined systems of organization is SO rewarding! 

Through my work as a professional organizer, I have learned that the number one thing that clutters people’s homes and stresses them out is PAPER! 

That is why I founded The Paper Academy, to help my clients learn how to sort their mail, process their important papers, and create filing systems that keeps them on top of their paperwork. 

Seeing my clients’ confidence increase as they learn to take control of their paperwork warms my heart every time. I hear from my clients time and again that being on top of their paperwork brings them a sense of pride that they didn’t know existed within them. They are always surprised that the skills that they learn to manage their paperwork can be utilized in other areas of their home. I love it when they tell me that they’re all of a sudden organizing their drawers and cabinets, too! 

Ultimately, my goal is to help you improve your life and save you money by reducing the anxiety, time, and expense that your cluttered environment causes. Learning the skills to manage your paperwork is the perfect place to begin your organizing journey!

Everyone deserves the confidence in dealing with their paperwork – including YOU!
