About eight years ago, I discovered the KonMari Method™ for myself. Enthusiasm became a passion.

Today I dedicate myself with my experience and knowledge to helping you live in a home that sparks joy.
I am an official KonMari Master Consultant.

In 2020, I also completed training with The Photo Managers.

Raised in Neuchâtel, I came to Zurich 30 years ago to study biology at ETH. Afterward, I expanded my technical knowledge as an IT consultant. Today I live with my husband and two children in Thalwil, near Zurich.

À jour means updated, up to date in French, my native language.

Testimonials

The result is WOW!

Thank you so much for your dedication with us. It is so wonderful and also liberating to look at the result after our hard work together. Every day when I open my closet, it puts a smile on my face. It is much easier to maintain order when it is visually so beautiful and clear. Our basement is also accessible again :-). When I need something, I find it right away.
I can wholeheartedly recommend you and your work to everyone. Especially to those who, like me, have long been dissatisfied with the “disorder” in their home but simply cannot find the motivation or solution to tackle the issue. With your warm, structured, practical, roll-up-your-sleeves, tireless, helpful manner, the whole reorganizing process is really fun! And as I said, the result is WOW!
Thank you!

My apartment is airier

I wanted to tidy up, declutter and create space, but ultimately just moved my things from one place to another.
Karine helped me get organized and made my decisions easier without influencing them. While organizing, I became aware of how much I own of everything. Purchases have since become rare and very deliberate. My apartment is airier and all items have their designated place. Consequently, I need less time to create order and organizing is enjoyable. Our apartment has become a very personal and beautiful retreat for the whole family.

Thank you so much for that!

An order that reflects my outer self

Karine helped me with her wonderful manner to create a new order step by step, which also reflects my outer self.
From the initial tidying, we quickly arrived at letting go. A fundamentally cleansing method and with Karine a guarantee for a joyful process that safely leads me to the goal: yes this sparks joy! Thank you, Karine.

Reducing documents

We gave Karine two missions: teach us how to sort through the contents of three houses brought together in one small flat in order to make space for a baby and how to organize kilos of paperwork dating back to 30 years ago. It took us some time but the results are very satisfying: the papers are all organized in four boxes instead of disorganized in ten boxes, the contents of our flat have been reduced by half and every item we have fits in and has a place. We have also trained our “Kondo muscle” to flex to keep only the things that really spark joy and to get rid of all unnecessary documents we receive (not easy as I have a shopping problem and the documents never stop pouring in so I could have relapsed!). Not only was it very efficient to work with Karine, it was also great fun!
