More About Benjamin:

  • Ben is a life-long 49ers and Sacramento Kings fan, rarely missing games. 
  • He broke his leg in three places while abroad; had to be air-lifted back to the U.S. and couldn’t walk for nearly three months.  That was one heck of a honeymoon.
  • One of his hidden talents is parallel parking, no matter how small the space.
  • Ben met his wife in college, where they had several classes together and were involved in many group projects, however they didn’t end up dating until six years later.  Like a fine wine, the best things in life take time.
  • He knows a ridiculous amount of professional golf facts, including which grips and equipment most players use.
  • Ben has always loved to travel.  Post-college graduation he backpacked through Europe, staying in hostels, train stations and even sleeping on the streets of Amsterdam.  He’s travelled abroad several times since; however, his accommodations are now much improved. 
  • Ben’s true superpower these days is making his kids laugh uncontrollably.
