Ben is a TV writer from Lexington, MA. Writing wasn't always the plan. First it was 'professional basketball player' (too short), then 'doctor' (too hard), then 'diplomat' (took a bad class in college and moved on, perhaps too quickly), and finally 'perpetual graduate student' (too expensive). Writing and comedy were always passions though; he just didn't realize they could be combined into an actual job until mid-college. Since moving to LA in 2012, he's worked on a range of shows -- spanning network, cable, and streaming. Most recently he served as a Co-EP on Hulu's "Only Murders In The Building." He's also written and directed a short film, "Meet Cute." Outside of writing, Ben enjoys rock climbing, sports, role-playing games, and relaxing with his girlfriend and their two cats (Fox and Scully).
