Hey! I’m Ben. I get along with just about everyone and love going to new places, meeting new people, and trying new things! I spend most of my free time writing music, rock climbing, and hanging with friends. At work, I help lead the continuous improvement team on the manufacturing floor for 3M's brand new sandpaper, 3M Xtract.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Opened for Matt & Kim and The Districts

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach: Anything Music! I sing and play guitar, ukulele, piano, and kalimba.

Learn: Literally anything. I love learning about people's passions and different cultures. Always fascinating to me.

Share: I am an open book! I'm willing to talk about just about anything as long as I'm not getting weird vibes from whoever I am speaking with.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Great music, stories about places I’ve lived, and a good laugh. I might as well be a professional chameleon. There isn’t a group of people I can’t get along with!
