Tripcraft was created by travel industry and technology veterans who have helped develop some of the most innovative travel technologies.

Mike Murray

Mike is co-founder of TripCraft. He drives product development, technology, and company strategy. He is also heavily involved in sales and marketing efforts and possesses some scary Photoshop / Keynote skills. But he's not all fluff, and has been hands-on developing innovative technology solutions for over 25 years. As a matter of fact, he coded TripCraft's original mobile product. To be honest we can't figure out if Mike is a techie, a product guru, graphic artist, sales/marketing guy, or manager. Quite the Renaissance man.

Before TripCraft, Mike was CEO and founder of three successful startup companies. One of his most notable successes was hubX, which was a hotel industry pioneer in delivering Internet based systems and technologies via a Software as a Service (SaaS) model. He has also held key executive positions at SynXis, Sabre and ITA software. Mike relishes the thought of going where no one has gone before, and his innovative thinking and systems can be seen powering some of the travel industry's biggest names.

When not working on TripCraft, Mike spends way too much time and money on one of the many projects in his collection of muscle cars and hot rods (some kids never grow up). He says wielding wrenches, hammers and welding torches is a good break from the daily challenges of building and managing technology. He also enjoys spending time with his rather large and crazy Irish family, and tipping a good pint or two.

Bill Nicholson

Bill is co-founder of TripCraft. His day-to-day responsibilities include strategy, operations, marketing and sales. During his 20-year career in hotel technology and distribution he led an innovative team that pioneered the industry's first platform designed for the management and distribution of hotel content, reservations and payment processing on the Internet.

Bill helped establish Pegasus Solutions and served as its president, chief operating officer and chief information officer during his 15-year career there. He also served as president and general manager for SynXis following its acquisition by Sabre Holdings. Most recently Bill has provided professional services to Sabre Holdings, Harland Clarke and HomeAway.

When not working on TripCraft activities, Bill enjoys spending time with his family, training for marathons and triathlons, flying his Cessna 182 and playing a round of golf with his friends.
