About Nick
Nick Serati is our co-founder and joined Thrifty Traveler in 2016, shortly after Thrifty Traveler’s launch. In a previous life, Nick worked in supply chain management and traveled extensively for work. That time on the road started his obsession with credit card points and airline miles in 2009. Since then, he has accumulated more than 10 million points from credit cards, traveling, and maximizing his spending. These miles have afforded him and his wife, Abbey, and their three daughters many trips all over the world.
Nick developed a love for travel at a young age by tagging along with his dad to conventions and meetings all over the United States. When Nick isn’t working, he is likely playing golf, shuttling his daughters to their many activities, or planning his next vacation – using points and miles, of course.
Nick has been quoted as an expert in credit cards and travel rewards in stories at creditcards.com, Bankrate, Investopedia, Best Life Online, and more.
