The film was picked up by Apple TV, showcasing his talent on a global platform. His other short films have also received recognition, including an Illinois Arts Council Award, and featured renowned talent such as Joe Minoso from Chicago Fire and Ted Kazerinski from Saturday Night Live.

Ben excels as a Producer/Director, crafting compelling videos and commercials for major national and international companies. His work has earned him various awards, including two Telly Awards and recognition for his outstanding contributions as a Latino Director/Producer.

Now, Ben is embarking on his next endeavor: producing his first feature film. With a proven track record of success and a passion for storytelling, he is ready to bring his unique vision to a larger audience.
