Did you know?

Given his love for soaking up knowledge, it’s no surprise that Ben enjoys going down proverbial rabbit holes to learn as much as he can about new topics. One of the practical benefits of these deep dives is that they’ve made him a product research expert. For example, ask him about backpacks. Go on… we dare you.
