Hey, Ben here.

I lead strategy and sales at Meridian AI, I founded the Austin Ruck Club, and I write State of the Stack.

I spend my time closing deals that make private markets faster, building community IRL, and writing about where AI meets the deal desk.

I'm a World Economic Forum Global Shapers Community Champion for the US South and a Future26 Fellow in Financial Services.

I'm obsessed with connecting people, building teams and systems, and traveling as much as I can.

I'm a proud generalist who's spent time in consulting, PE, and now GTM at a startup — mostly because I can't stop learning how things actually work.

I'm figuring it out one day at a time.
