Hi I'm Ben

It is a pleasure to meet you.

My entire life I have been building and learning all types of things from wood cabinets and funky coffee tables to distributed software systems. I have throughly enjoyed every moment of it. My life would be completely different had I not been driven by my curiosity of the unknown.

I am a formally educated computer scientist. I began this journey being a self taught programmer but later learned the hard way that there were better ways to solve these problems and better math to describe them. I have also come to realize that there is no replacement for experience, this is why I learn something new and try something new everyday.

In my free time I like to solve problems at coderloop, get inspired by dribble, and kick back to some music with trance radio. I couldn't possibly list all the places I wander but those are a few of my favorites that I want to share with you.
