Ben always felt a deep connection to music and live shows, making it a significant part of his life as he traveled and explored places like Valhalla.
Initially pursuing a career in science, Ben eventually seized an opportunity to dive headfirst into the music scene at the age of 30.
His passion for music and vibrant environments led him to take over a venue, transforming his hobby into a dedicated career.
For more than a decade, he became fully immersed in his new role, with time passing swiftly in a blur of experiences. Reflecting on his journey, Ben recalls a time when he was clean-shaven, vastly different from the person he has become.
