Hi, I'm Pete.
Great travel is a puzzle I love to solve.
Planning the perfect trip, getting the best value from points, making the logistics disappear: that's the part I find genuinely fun.
My points journey started small, saving a little money on trips to visit friends. Then in 2016 I started using points to take trips I never thought I'd be able to, and I've been hooked ever since.
What I love most is teaching clients how to use what they have to create the ultimate experience, whether that means making their trip more affordable or more luxurious. My team and I work collaboratively, learning how you like to travel, then getting into the details that will make your trip truly special.
Maximize value
Points and special perks let you experience something new without the guilt, like the upgrade you'd never have booked with cash.
It's all in the details
The right room type, the restaurant around the corner, the one activity that makes the trip: that's where a good trip becomes a great one.
Scheduling the right amount
Some travelers want every day full, others want long mornings and nowhere to be. We tailor the itinerary to your pace, whether that leans toward relaxation or doing more.
My travel philosophy
Points are meant to be used. They're permission to travel better than you'd let yourself otherwise. Whether it's a better hotel room, a longer stay, or an upgrade to business class, I love finding the situations where a small amount of points unlocks an experience that would take a much larger amount of cash. That's the whole point: turning a great trip into one nobody forgets.
A mistake that taught me a lot
When I bought my wife's engagement ring, I put it on a cashback card, and almost immediately regretted it. Right after, I started seeing the trips those same dollars could have unlocked in airline miles. It stung, but it taught me the lesson I now pass on to every client: think about what your upcoming spending could become before you spend it, not after.
A few places and moments I keep coming back to.
San Sebastián, Spain
My favorite international destination: world-class food, unique culture, and an incredible beach, all in a city you can walk end to end.
Grand Marais, Minnesota
My favorite road trip: a little town on Lake Superior with great hikes nearby, good restaurants, and beautiful scenery.
Business class to Portugal
My best redemption: a family of four in lie-flat seats to Lisbon for about 45k points each. We all arrived rested, and my five-year-old still talks about the white-tablecloth dinner.
