NM :: Why do you want to run NEAT in your city?
BV :: The Inland Empire & Desert cities is a market with busy families, businesses, and communities that need the NEAT life. These cities need NEAT Method to design and implement customized solutions that are not only effective but sustainable. Everyone needs some color coded, chalk labeled organization in their life! I am thrilled to introduce them to a new NEAT life!
NM :: What did you do before NEAT?
BV :: I was a Cardiovascular Pharmaceutical Sales representative, turned Consignment Sale Owner, now large events project manager.
NM :: What makes your city unique
BV :: The diversity of its people, the dynamic demographics, the different and always changing landscape and lifestyles. Everywhere has palm trees, then add in vineyards, orange or date trees by community! 45 Minutes from the Beach, 45 minutes from the slopes, 45 minutes from LA.
NM :: How long have you lived in your city?
BV :: 33 years. Since starting Kindergarten. But I left for a few years to go to college and came back to marry my High School sweetheart and eventually planted roots to raise a family. The last 14 months my family and I lived on the road in our motorhome… we’re an ordinary family that took on the extraordinary adventure of exploring life on the road. America- you really are Beautiful!
NM :: What are your favorite places to shop in your city?
BV :: I am a girl who loves basic colors and cuts, simple lines, things made with heart. I love handmade goods and old rustic finds. A great shopping day is at Downtown Riverside Boutiques, Victoria Gardens, and El Paseo. Give me a Pottery Barn, Anthropology, Container Store and an Antique mall + a Target and I am a happy girl!
NM :: What are your favorite places to eat in your city?
BV :: I have a Gluten allergy so my favorite places are not always the places I can eat. But I love any meal at the Mission Inn or Graw Pow in Riverside, Temecula’s Blackbird Cafe has my heart and Jackalope Ranch or the Cliffhouse are my Desert go to’s! I will always pull over for In-n-out protein style!
NM :: What do you think is going to be your favorite part of running NEAT in your city?
BV :: Bringing control to chaos by bringing organized simplicity to the everyday household or business. Meeting people who may be overwhelmed and leave them with spaces that bring calm.
NM :: What can people expect when they hire you to organize their home?
BV :: I’m a highly motivated and organized individual with a voracious work ethic. My passions include bringing order out of chaos and I pride myself on doing that with inclusivity, kindness and calm. I have the unique ability to turn chaos and disorganization into order with efficient systems so that they are free to enjoy their home, their family, their LIFE!
NM :: Do you have any hidden talents we should know about?
BV :: Sadly NO. I do have some not girl like hobbies though- I drive a jeep or ride a dirt bike on any trail, I captain a ski boat and I snowboard- even in inclement weather.
NM :: What blog do you think we NEED to follow now and why?
BV :: The desire to simplify led them to live their passion to explore and adventure. They have grown a brand on being an adventurous family of minimalists. https://www.thebucketlistfamily.com/
