About
Ben holds a M.S. from University of Wisconsin-Madison and B.S. from University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. He is passionate about all things engineering. He has hands-on experience with CAD, welding, milling, turning, sheet metal fabrication, and semi-conductor fabrication processes. In his spare time he also configures and programs hobby electronics (Arduino).
He is also adept at Python programming with an interest in Machine Learning, AI and Data Analytics. He is also a capable C++ programmer. Additional skills include Tableau, Excel/VBA, and SQL.
Aside from work, he enjoys playing ultimate frisbee. So much, in fact, that he started a non-profit 501c3 in his time in Peoria, IL.
