Nice to meet you!

Hi! I'm Andrea Needlman, founder of Parse Home, a professional home organizing and styling business serving Chicago and the North Shore. I'm passionate about understanding how people actually live, and designing spaces that work for them, not against them. I love taking something overwhelming and breaking it down until it's simple again. From basements to bookshelves, I haven’t found a challenge I couldn’t tackle!

I have my master's in human-centered design planning and undergrad in graphic design. I’ve spent 20 years designing user-friendly interfaces in the digital world: talking to people, identifying their needs, and designing solutions to address their challenges.

When I left the corporate world to start Parse Home, I brought my designer skill set with me: listening carefully, understanding obstacles, and creating easy to use systems. I use this same approach for every home organizing, decluttering, closet makeover, and home staging project.

I live in Evanston with my husband and our dog Ivy. My twins are in college, so we're newly empty nesters navigating this next chapter. I look forward to meeting you and bringing order and harmony to your home.
