Amélie Saint-Jacques

Professional Bio

Amélie [Ah-meh-lee] Saint-Jacques (she/her/hers) is a TCK who grew up in Canada, the U.S., and China. She settled in Montreal, Quebec, for university, where she studied biology, psychology, journalism, and translation. (She would like it noted that education is subsidized in Quebec!) She jumped right into a career as a translator (English-French), first writing subtitles for DVDs, then branching out to other types of written documents, both for the layperson and for specialized audiences. A move to San Antonio eventually led to a career change, and she became a professional organizer specializing in home organizing, both in person and virtually. She had always enjoyed TV shows like Clean Sweep (2003) and loved applying what she saw in her own home as well as in her family members’ homes. Making organizing a career was a logical next step. She joined NAPO in 2019 and then became a Certified KonMari Consultant in 2021 to further help her clients. Amélie volunteered with the NAPO Austin social media committee before becoming the Director of Marketing in 2022. She now lives in San Antonio with her husband and their two children. Amélie is a lactose-intolerant foodie who also enjoys knitting, reading, and travelling.
