Erin Rooney Doland is Editor-in-Chief of Unclutterer.com, a website providing daily articles on home and office organization. With the motto "A place for everything and everything in its place," one might incorrectly assume that the writers are rigid, high-maintenance neatniks. The truth is that the Unclutterers are simply people who have found that being organized provides them with more time and less stress in their lives so that they can enjoy the things that truly matter.

Erin was once a pack rat who held on to objects like her third grade math assignments and every note she passed in high school. When she moved into an 850 sq. foot, one bedroom apartment with her husband in downtown D.C., however, she realized that it was time to change her ways. Now, she is committed to a simple lifestyle and reaps its benefits. She believes in buying quality over quantity, and experience has taught her that a clean, uncluttered home is an essential component of a remarkable life.

She received her undergraduate degree from the University of Kansas, William Allen White School of Journalism, and her master's degree from Johns Hopkins University. She has worked in public affairs for political and economics' groups, taught high school English, and paid for college by spinning tunes as a disc jockey at a commercial radio station. Writing and organization are two of her greatest passions, and her job at Unclutterer allows her to combine these while working with an amazing staff of writers, researchers, and programmers.
