Several recent life changes presented the opportunity to re-evaluate what, and who are the most important to me. The result was launching my small business- Beyond the Move.

In 2020, my husband and I made the decision to downsize our family home of 20 years. I can appreciate first-hand the effort and stress associated with this task, especially when under extremely tight timelines (& COVID protocols). Determining what our new home had space for, dispersing (donating, recycling, selling, storage) items we no longer had room or need for, and preparing the house for sale was a stressful period. A few years prior,  a loved ones home needed to be sold, and it contained decades of belongings and treasures, to be sorted and dispersed or disposed of. This was a very time-consuming, stressful process whereby the support of a professional certainly would have made a world of difference to us.

Through my personal experiences, I realized many older adults, their families, and loved ones, are faced with the daunting task of downsizing and relocating and often with very limited support. My love for organization and process, as well as my attention to detail, led me to the Senior Move Management industry. In addition to having completed NASMM Senior Move Management training, I am a Professional Consultant on Aging (CPCA) ®. I have a deep understanding of the age-related changes and issues impacting older adults, allowing me to better understand and support the needs of my clients.

I spent over 30 years in a corporate career where I built strong client relationships based on understanding and trust. I have lived in Durham Region my entire life and now reside in Port Perry where I grew up.

I look forward to meeting with you to discuss your needs and how Beyond the Move can help you and those involved in your journey.
