We’ve known Ben since we begun working closely with StockX. He is always willing to make time for us to just check in and talk and holds his ground in just about any topic, particularly if it relates to culture, art or creativity in general design. We always leave our conversations refreshed and inspired and feeling more at ease that there are other people like us in the world!
