Hi there! My name is Ben, I am 37 years old and I am an engineering manager living here in the beautiful city of St. Louis.

My hobbies include working on my house, bicycling, pickle ball, cooking, hosting events, D&D, and checking out local attractions.

I enjoy all kinds of media, from Wes Anderson films to Jojo’s bizarre adventure. I owe it to my friends for ensuring I remain somewhat cultured.

I am an internet certified officiant who has married three couples, all friends of mine. Basically a wedding expert at this point.

As a food lover I try to support the many incredible local restaurants around me. I also spend a lot of time cooking for myself and enjoy learning new recipes. My equipment of choice is cast iron, and I would love some antique pieces to add to my collection.

Warm climate kinda guy. Miss me with that cold weather crap.
