Ben takes big, universal feelings and translates them into intimate and relatable microstories.
His work captures the paradoxes of life: warmth and rawness, simplicity and scale. His ability to capture strong emotion in short-form has earned him recognition across the industry, including a Telly Award win for “A Thousand Miles for Care” and AdAge Editor’s Picks for his work with KB Homes and Center for Reproductive Rights. He was also shortlisted as an AICP Best New Director.

From tales of triumph against the odds (Nike), to snapshots of the quiet moments that define us (23andMe), to visceral portraits of rhythm (Jo-Jax, New Orleans Jazz) -- his respect for artistry and craft is a constant undertone.
“I could tell Farm League had a desire for the art - not just the craft. There’s a real emphasis on visual tone and feeling in their work. I’m looking forward to finding new stories together and creating pieces that move people on some level. There’s a lot of clutter out there; I want to add some beauty that stands out.”

“Good storytellers hold their work gently, make space for what's real. Ben sees the truth in a moment and knows how to honor it. There's emotion in his work because he trusts the performance, trusts what's there. We're excited to have him at Farm League.”
