Meet Tracy

Unlike most of us, Tracy McCubbin is energized at the prospect of tackling a houseful of clutter.

Tracy has always lived by the motto, “don’t put it down, put it away,” but who knew she could turn that philosophy into a booming business? While working for a major television director in Hollywood, Tracy discovered she had the ability to see through any mess and clearly envision a clutter-free space. Coupled with her keen time-management and organizational skills, Tracy soon found fulfillment in helping people discover real solutions by getting to the root of their clutter. Before she knew it, dClutterfly was born.

Almost two decades and thousands of decluttered homes later, Tracy knew it was time to take what she had learned working with her clients to help others around the world dealing with clutter. She authored two best selling books: Making Space, Clutter-Free: The Last Book on Decluttering You'll Ever Need and Make Space for Happiness: How to Stop Attracting Clutter and Magnetizing the Life You Want, bringing the beauty of organizing to homes everywhere. Tracy is also a regularly featured expert in the media, including Forbes, goop, The Washington Post, The Wall Street Journal, Yahoo News, CBS, NBC, FOX, Real Simple, mindbodygreen, CBS, and more.

In addition to her impressive organizing tool belt, Tracy grew up the child of a hoarder and knows firsthand that the effects of living amongst an accumulation of possessions goes far beyond the home’s walls. This personal experience gives her an advantage over most professional organizers as she has a unique understanding of the emotional connection we tie to our stuff.

When she is not dCluttering, Tracy is the proud Co-Executive Director of OneKid OneWorld, a non-profit organization,  building strong educational foundations for children in impoverished communities throughout Kenya and Central America. OKOW is providing kids with basic (yet essential) fundamentals like desks and books, as well as paying teachers’ salaries, building classrooms, and even installing solar power technology so students can study at night. OKOW's most recent project OneGirl OnePad provides access to feminine hygiene products to over 4,000 students in Kenya, allowing them to attend school all year round. 

Tracy lives in Los Angeles with her husband and knows where her keys are.
