Jimmy is currently the Senior Lifestyle Writer at CNBC (working with the CNBC Make It team).

As a former editor, travel writing professor and current freelance writer, Jimmy’s passion for travel is borderline obsession (hence, binging). At an average, he travels two to three weeks out of the month (since 2005); he’s credited for staying at more luxury hotels than any other person on Earth (more than 900). He’s explored hundreds of off-the-radar locations, like Greenland and Marquesa Islands, and continuously returns to popular destinations (i.e.: Bangkok: 6 visits, Tahiti: 4 visits, Mexico: 27 visits, etc). Jimmy speaks regularly at conferences and he’s a genuine, household name in the travel industry.

With 15 years experience and 113 countries visited, Jimmy is the original travel influencer. He’s thrilled to share his knowledge, expertise and enthusiasm for luxury travel with TravelBinger. To contact Jimmy, click here.
