Ben was born and raised in Fargo, ND and a graduate of Shanley High School. Ben attended the University of Mary in Bismarck, ND and settled back in Fargo with his wife, kids, and dog. Ben is super passionate about people. The number one thing for him, is the care of others above all else; everything else can be figured out along the way. He loves to be creative, light hearted, and efficient. The best thing in life to Ben is being a dad, creative projects, and music (he does not play a single instrument).
