Ben grew up in a family of nine siblings and states his family as his biggest influence. His creative streak originated from a passion for drawing and painting early on, and by middle school he had begun making short movies with friends and playing music. An avid skater until the age of 19, Ben injured his back and now claims that heavy lifting is enough to leave him bedridden for days.
