Hi there!

I’m Ben.

I’m an engineer and designer, curious about elements of Language, Time, and Movement in the world around me.

For the last four years, I’ve explored these themes as a Technical Designer at Teague in Seattle, working on transportation design projects for clients including Boeing, Overland AI, and Voyager Technologies. My work ranges from accessibility and user experience to prototyping and the occasional weird engineering problem. 

I studied Mechanical Engineering at the Rochester Institute of Technology. (Go Tigers!) Along the way, I took industrial design classes in conjunction with my engineering coursework, worked for the Honors Program, and did two co-op rotations for GE Aviation. I also played rugby, with mixed results. 

When I’m not designing, engineering, or inventing things, I like to play chess (mostly fairy variants) and soccer. I also run my own record label, Common Universe, where I record and release original music. (Check out my debut album here!)

Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you want to chat about engineering, design, music, or anything cool and creative.

Thanks for stopping by!
