Ben has lived in the Pacific Northwest his whole life, and early on he realized that he wanted to pursue a career in business. Ben moved from the Seattle area to obtain a dual bachelor’s degree in accounting and finance from Washington State University Vancouver in 2016. He later earned his CPA certificate in 2021.

During his career, Ben has worked for a variety of different accounting firms, ranging from a small local firm to one of the Big 4 firms, as well as a private company. Ben previously spent time at Opsahl Dawson before moving to the Seattle area to work for a regional accounting firm. Ben has now rejoined Opsahl Dawson and is excited to resume helping clients in the Southwest Washington area.

When not in the office, Ben is either out riding his motorcycle, playing golf, disc golf, exploring the coast, or hiking with his wife and dogs. He also enjoys attending concerts with friends and occasionally playing his own music. Ben is a Seattle sports fan and enjoys supporting both the Mariners and the Seahawks.
