About JetSetMatt

JetSetMatt is a fresh and personalized travel consulting platform designed to cut costs without cutting corners on experiences. My goal is to ensure that my clients pay what they expect—without sacrificing the best adventures each destination has to offer. I’m here to help you travel smarter, not harder.

I created JetSetMatt to inspire people to see that amazing trips don’t have to come with a high price tag. I left my past job where the typical response to “Where have you traveled?” was usually, “I’ve never even been on a plane.” There’s this misconception that travel is out of reach for most, but it doesn’t have to be. Travel can get pricey if you go in without a plan, but with the right strategies, it can also be surprisingly affordable and accessible.

Whether it’s a spontaneous city escape or an extended adventure, I’m dedicated to finding the best value while still ensuring you have an authentic and unforgettable experience.

About Matt

Let me introduce myself:

My name is Matt Friedman—I’m a 23-year-old post-grad living in Phoenix, Arizona. Originally from Cleveland, Ohio, I moved out West in 2019 to pursue a degree at Arizona State University.

In May 2023, I graduated from ASU with Honors, earning a B.S. in Entrepreneurship and a B.S. in Management. Right out of college, I jumped into a corporate management position at Amazon, working nights and logging nearly 50 hours a week. I quickly realized that this was not where I wanted to be.

I’ve always been privileged enough to be able to find an escape through travel, and I want to help other people do the same. I pride myself for being good at finding travel deals. I track flight prices almost everyday and have learned a few tricks down the lane. I want to help others experience the freedom and joy that travel brings me.

JetSetMatt is my way of staying on my feet and staying on the move. It’s my personal brand and the first of many travel projects I’m working on and plan to build upon. I hope to work for myself and to continue creating experiences for myself and others.

I hope you enjoy, thank you!
