My all time favorite resource for people who are trying to find their next career or their initial path. Roadtrip Nation originated from a post college roadtrip that Mike Marriner took with his buddy. And, the rest is history. He’s been inspiring and educating young and old people to design their careers ever since. As co-founder and President of Roadtrip Nation, Mike Marriner leads the organization’s media and education efforts that empower people from all backgrounds to define their own roads in life.

Roadtrip Nation has been awarded the Excellence in Programming award by American Public Television, two Telly awards, and won the 2019 Lone Star Regional Emmy Award for the film, Room to Grow. Mike has co-authored all 4 Roadtrip Nation books including Roadmap (Chronicle Books), which hit the NY Times best-seller list in 2018.
