"Ben is the Dungeon Master of his own existence, four steps ahead of every risk and advocating for his party as they trove through the dark caverns of UX."

Professional
After studying History and Psychology I began a career in the arts. I started with archival and conservation framing and moved on to manage shops and help two companies open entirely new facilities. I eventually worked as a project manager for the nations largest Art Conservation facility, which took me all over the US assessing and caring for collections. I love adapting my creativity in new ways, which has led me to pursue a new path as a UX Designer where I continue to apply my drive to craft empathetic and sincere solutions for people.
Personal
I'm a native of Austin, TX who just moved to Denver after 9 years in Chicago. My love of the outdoors is part of what brought me here! I have always loved hiking and am pursuing winter sports during my first winter in the city. I'm incredibly passionate about music - listening, performing or writing. I'm also an avid reader - from History & Psychology to Fantasy & Horror, I'm very comfortable lounging with a good book.
