Travel writer, editor, & consultant
Hi, I'm Chris.
I'm a writer, editor, and creator covering travel, lifestyle, and loyalty programs. I meet audiences where they are and engage in innovative forms of storytelling to ultimately inspire people to travel, stay, fly, and dine well.
I began my writing career in travel as a reporter and newsletter editor at The Points Guy, covering the intersection of credit cards and travel.
Currently, as a freelancer, my articles can be found in Travel + Leisure, AFAR, Conde Nast Traveler, The Washington Post, and Lonely Planet, among others. I also serve as a video contributor for Travel + Leisure.
You can email me at chris@thechrisflyer.com or find me on Twitter, Instagram, and LinkedIn.
Here are a few of my recent pieces.
