It’s nice to meet you!
Hi there! I’m Sarah Williamson, the organizer behind Sorted by Sarah. My passion for organizing really began as a kid — I can remember more than one time I’d find myself organizing music CDs in the entertainment section of our local Walmart. (You know, typical kid stuff. 😄)
I adored arranging and rearranging little knick-knacks on my nightstand — much like a window dresser might style merchandise in their shop window — until everything looked perfectly “just so.”
For me, making things look tidy and pleasing brought a true sense of joy. I couldn’t get enough of the before-and-afters on shows like Trading Spaces, Hoarders, Extreme Makeover, What Not to Wear, and Queer Eye.
I fell in love with transformation. And this love has stayed with me throughout my life.
As I pursued my Bachelor of Fine Arts degree and then worked in jobs in the arts (photographer, graphic designer, art director, and dance fitness instructor) — I found fulfillment in creating beautiful, meaningful work.
But it wasn’t just about how things looked. It was about making things better.
That’s what organizing is all about: helping people transform their spaces to match the lives they want to lead.
I started Sorted by Sarah to bring that transformational energy to others. I believe that when our spaces are organized, we can focus more clearly on what really matters to us in life.
If you're ready for a home transformation, I’d love to help! Let’s create a space that works for you and the life you want.
