Meet Ria Safford of RíOrganize

Today we’d like to introduce you to Ria Safford.

Ria, can you briefly walk us through your story – how you started and how you got to where you are today.
RíOrganize began in March 2016 as my little part-time gig and has since evolved into something greater than I could have ever imagined! My family of three had just moved back to California, and I knew I no longer wanted to be a part of the corporate world as a new mother. I needed to be doing something with purpose. I have always had a need to help people and RíOrganize created the platform for just that!

The best part about my story is that I did not grow up an organized person in my personal life. It wasn’t until getting married and especially having children that I grew to really appreciate what great organizational systems could do for my own life! I have two daughters and am due with our first boy in March. We have also moved five times in the last six years. These are big transitions in life, and I love that I can come to clients from experience.

Has it been a smooth road?
The momtrepreneur life is not for the weary that is for sure! I naively thought this job would afford me some more down time “being my own boss,” but boy was I wrong. It is still not easy to find that perfect balance between work mom and home mom. The mom guilt is strong having such little ones (almost four and two).

I had my second daughter a year into starting RíOrganize–a lot of work stuff was put on hold as I did not have a team yet. Growing RíOrganize has been such an exciting thing for me, and 2019 could not be off to a better start! Here is to some more growth, balance, and patience as I navigate through this crazy phase of life.

So, as you know, we’re impressed with RíOrganize – tell our readers more, for example, what you’re most proud of as a company and what sets you apart from others.
RíOrganize is a modern organization company offering full-service luxury organization, design and space planning. We create customized organization solutions for your space… and show you the best ways to maintain them. At RíOrganize, we believe in holding your space to the highest standard.

From junk drawers to master closets, your spaces set the tone for how you begin and end each day. It is time for you to define your space – not let your space define you. I am most proud of the way our work has truly changed the lives of our clients. We put every resource we have into creating systems that will simplify and streamline their days.

We do our due diligence to provide you with custom, long-lasting solutions. Every project is unique, but our approach is always the same. We keep your lifestyle, habits and personal taste at the core of every project to bring the function and aesthetic elements to your spaces.

Life is crazy, your spaces don’t have to be!

Let’s touch on your thoughts about our city – what do you like the most and least?
Although we are based in Orange County, we have been lucky to work all over Southern California. The dislike of the city will forever and always be the traffic. Woof!

Our LA/Pasadena jobs have this momma up at 4:45 am to get the day started. Good thing I’m a morning person!

The best part is, of course, the people. We have been beyond blessed with our clients and the wonderful relationships we have made.
