Hi, I’m Jessica!

Points and miles have actually been part of my life for a lot longer than Moms Chasing Miles.

My mom started earning them back in the 80s, so I grew up watching her use rewards for travel. I got my first travel card in 2014, but for years, I kept things pretty basic too.

Then in 2020, I started realizing just how much more we could be doing with our points—and I went ALL in on learning how to earn them strategically, use transfer partners, and turn our everyday spending into trips we never would've wanted to pay for entirely in cash.

But somewhere along the way, points and miles became about so much more than saving money on vacations.

Before my mom passed away in 2024, points helped us take her on so many incredible trips—Spain, Greece, Paris, Venice, Rome, London, Key West, New York City, and Disney World—and make memories together that I would give anything to relive now.

That changed the way I look at travel.

It's not just about getting a “free” flight or finding a great redemption.

It's about what those points make possible.

Today, my husband and I are raising two girls, and we're trying to show them as much of this world as we possibly can—without having an unlimited travel budget.

So far, I've traveled to 18 countries—and I've taken my girls to 14 of them. And we're nowhere near done. ✈️

Through Moms Chasing Miles, I share exactly how we're doing it: the cards we use, the points we earn, how I book our trips, the mistakes I make along the way, and the strategies that have helped our family travel farther than I ever thought we could.

Whether you're trying to book your family's first trip with points or you're ready to take your strategy to the next level, I want to help you make more of those “we actually get to do this” trips happen too.
