Interview: Corinne Morahan Grid + Glam

We are obsessed with home organization experts on Instagram…and a year ago, we discovered Corinne Morahan of Grid+Glam. You know those rainbow colored refrigerators? Perfectly labeled and edited pantries? You know what we’re talking about.

Either way, we found our local organization expert, and are not letting her go! We want to share her with you all!!!

We decided to ask simple, easy questions…much like the Vogue 73 questions series. Which we love!!! So, here goes the first interview of 2020.

Morning Corinne! Tell us a little about yourself:

I run an online Membership to help busy, high achieving women get and stay organized in all aspects of their lives.  And, along with my team, I do in-person organizing for clients that want their homes and their lives transformed for them.  My superpower is bringing order to chaos because what that really does is help us all live simpler, calmer, happier and more fulfilled lives.  When I’m not working, I’m with my husband and two kids . . .or organizing my own home.
