Our Mission

Our mission is to create spaces which are equal parts functional & beautiful, while removing all toxic elements, to bring ease, clarity and peace. We want every client to feel the powerful positive impact of Clean Living.

Alexandria Carter

Founder

I like to call myself a curious creative—someone who can solve any problem, figure out anything, and make it happen. When my father was diagnosed with Parkinson’s in 2020, I embarked on a mission to understand why he became so sick despite living a relatively healthy life. This journey uncovered a wealth of insights into how our homes influence our well-being. From the food we eat to the products we use and the energy within our spaces, I’ve learned that we have the power to shape our health and future. By bringing function and order to our living spaces and eliminating chaos and toxins, we can create environments that support happier, healthier lives.

I’ve been professionally organizing for over five years, but my passion for organization began in my teens, when I discovered the profound peace of mind and clarity it brings. With Clean is Living, you’re not just getting a service—you’re getting a lifestyle transformation. I blend health, wellness, and function to create the clean, organized, and balanced life you’ve always wanted.

My career path has been as eclectic as my passions. I spent my early years in New York City working on high-end residential construction with an architecture firm. From there, I ventured into sales at a tech company and even launched an Etsy business, where I curated and sold antiques and vintage clothing.

When I’m not working, I express my creativity through poetry, screenwriting, and painting—or by attempting to decode the mysteries of the Instagram algorithm. You’ll often find me walking my two German Shepherd mixes, exploring local flea markets, or finding inspiration in life’s simple pleasures.

  • We try to work with what you have, but sometimes additional products are needed to keep systems in place. We do not show up with a million products overwhelming you and causing you to worry about how much money you are spending. We declutter and purge first and then put everything away. Lastly, we go over with you what products we think would work the best in certain places. We are very cognizant that everyone cares about budget. We also don’t want to cause more clutter in your home that you will get rid of in a few years. Too much excess product can be just that.
