About Me

Hey there, I'm Joel, a former Boise State Football player turned mechanical engineer, and travel, food, and personal finance enthusiast. At age 25, I attained a credit score of 800+ and found a passion traveling and eating great food with friends and family. 

​

Over the past 7 years I have expanded my knowledge on credit cards and used it to maximize my points redemptions to book travel. On top of that, I have gained a massive appreciation for time spent dining with friends and family. So many of my best memories from childhood, to college football, to life-after-sports have revolved around a table of food. 

 

I understand that traveling and dining at restaurants is not always attainable for all. My goal is to share my personal finance tips to help you maximize cash return and points redemptions so you can make amazing memories of your own! I will also share my travel and dining tips so you can get the most out of each experience.
