Kristen Awe, Owner Rightsize Moving Solutions

Kirsten Awe, the owner of Rightsize Moving Solutions, is a native Kansan who has lived in the Wichita area for over 35 years. What started as a love for organizing and helping people set up their homes led Kirsten to begin her career as a Professional Organizer. After establishing a reputation for high-quality work and a trustworthy name, the organizing business expanded into a home staging service and furniture consignment store.

Eventually, Kirsten started to specialize in working with seniors on various relocation and downsizing projects. She fell in love with the process of helping seniors and their families during one of the most challenging times in their lives. That passion and talent, combined with the overwhelming need for an honest, reliable resource in the community, led her to launch Rightsize Moving Solutions, which has grown into a full-service moving, relocation, and transition service business.

Kirsten is set apart from other Wichita, KS moving company owners by her professionalism and expertise offered in every service. Kirsten has several certifications and holds membership with the following local and national professional transition and organizing organizations.

Michelle Renner, Owner Re-Vive by Renner

With a passion for organizing homes, Michelle has helped her friends redesign and organize their spaces to adapt their homes to their lifestyles just for fun. Thrilled with the results, her friends have convinced Michelle to start her company Re-Vive by Renner, which offers functional organization to transform spaces and love where you live. Michelle helps her clients reclaim their space for a renewed sense of pride and accomplishment without feeling overwhelmed, transforms spaces in a new way to realize underutilized opportunities, and conquers storage systems with flair that simplifies daily routines.

As a full-time business owner, working with her husband in their insurance business, and a mom of an active teenager, Michelle works with clients in her spare time. She looks forward to the time when she can transition her focus to expanding to more than a side hustle.
