Known for blending deep travel industry insight with technical marketing excellence, Brennen helps travel brands win visibility, demand, and revenue across search, AI discovery platforms, and performance channels.
Brennen founded the company in 2014 at just 14 years old — originally called PixelCutLabs — building websites and running SEO for anyone who would give him a shot. What started as a one-teen show evolved into a multi-disciplinary, 25-person agency specializing in travel and tourism. In 2021, the agency fully embraced the travel vertical, eventually rebranding to Propellic and transforming into a leading partner for hotels, resorts, DMOs, tour operators, and travel technology companies.
Today, Propellic manages tens of millions in annual ad spend, drives large-scale SEO programs for major tourism brands, and is pioneering AI-driven discovery optimization — helping travel companies show up in the answers travelers get from search engines, generative AI platforms, and emerging conversational interfaces.
Brennen speaks regularly at industry events including WTM London, Phocuswright, and Arival, and is the co-author of a forthcoming research report with Phocuswright on AI readiness in travel marketing. His thought leadership sits at the intersection of travel, AI, and consumer behavior, with a focus on how travelers make decisions — and how brands can earn more visibility in a world where traditional search is being replaced by intelligent assistants.
Based in Austin, Texas, Brennen is widely recognized as an emerging leader in the travel industry. Outside of work, he’s an obsessive traveler, a luxury-hotel enthusiast, private pilot, and a lover of morning workouts, great food, and exploring new destinations with his husband Thomas and their two dogs.
