CREATIVE DIRECTOR.
ART DIRECTOR.
BRANDING & IDENTITY.

  • My name is Benjamin, but most call me Benny. I made my bones over 18 years ago as an Art Director and Designer. I’ve had a storied career thus far managing the design and marketing architecture for some of the world’s most beloved brands. Comfortable as a player (AD) and a coach (CD), people enjoy working with me, people enjoy working for me and I enjoy people. 

    I currently spend my time as Creative Director, Sports at 2K.

    In my free time I love to make art, spend all day cooking, play tennis and get lost in the woods. I live in Frogtown, Los Angeles with my 13 year old Pom.
