Shirley is a native of the Denver, CO area. She has lived in the area all of her life except for 9 months. Shirley has been an organized person back as far as she can remember into her childhood. Shirley began her professional career as a Police Dispatcher where the organization skills were put to the test each shift. After the Police Dept Shirley found herself starting a 25 year career with the local telephone company who went thru 3 names while she was employed with them. Mountain Bell - U S West - Qwest Communications. The majority of the 25 years was spent in what is now known as the IT arena. Both as non-management and management Shirley's duties dealt mainly with Disaster/Recovery within a Regional Data Center in the Denver area. Like many companies, layoffs were plentiful as the company was taken down by the CEO. Also during the majority of the 25 year career with Qwest, Shirley was primary caregiver for her late Mother. After life began to "settle" somewhat...Shirley gave a great deal of thought to the many suggestions made that she should start a business based on what she did for her Mother. After all, she enjoyed what she did and was enjoying what she was doing for her Mother. Originally, there was just the 2 products...the PINK SHEET and the Personal Paper Tracking System (home/office inventory). Eventually, Shirley finished the book she was also encouraged to write and it is now found on the website: http://www.proorganizer.com (Diary of a Lay Caregiver). In this book, Shirley wanted to share that being a caregiver can have its UP's and DOWN's...BUT it is all NOT DOOM and GLOOM! In 2004 Shirley decided to full-fill a long time dream of hers....live where it was warm year round, work for Disney and run her home-business. June 2004 Shirley moved from Westminster, Colorado to the Orlando, Florida area. 2004 was a BAD hurricane year! From 13 Aug 2004 - 25 Sept 2004, 4 MAJOR hurricanes went thru the area where Shirley was....the biggest portion of her personal and business possessions were destroyed. No matter how well one is organized...one cannot organize TOTALLY against such a disaster. With no place to live, Shirley was forced to flee her long time dream. She did NOT want to return to the cold/snow of Colorado thus headed for Las Vegas, NV...BIG MISTAKE, more devastation occurred there. Finally, after 5 months...Shirley returned to the Denver metro area where she remains today....still struggling to rebuild her shattered life. Shirley continues to help others the best she can by donating time to speak about "role-reversal" and/or organizing. Shirley was blessed to be a volunteer for an Extreme Makeover Home Edition (2007) build about 90 mins South of where she lives. Being able to help "complete" strangers was one of the most heartwarming experiences she has been a part of. - www.proorganizer.com
