Meet the Team

Ann Bishop

Pathways Organizing, Associate Professional Organizer

After a three-decade corporate career in information technology, Ann decided in 2009 to follow her passion by helping others with their organizing challenges and projects. She loves working with clients to remove the “overwhelm” associated with their homes and offices, as well as during a health crisis or after a death. She gained a deeper appreciation of the latter after handling her father’s elder care and estate administration. Her IT background has proven invaluable in helping clients organize their digital information and streamline technical processes.

She has served the community in many volunteer endeavors and is active in professional organizations, such as the National Association of Professional Organizers (NAPO), Northern New Jersey Chapter. She is the Newsletter Editor of the Livingston AARP Chapter, was a Certified Medicare Counselor (2010-2013) and is a Notary Public of New Jersey.
