Ben has worked in product development and implementation in the high tech and healthcare fields, and loves to take new ideas and make them a reality. He has been involved in WOW for over two years. "The Passion of all those involved in Wonders of Walking is amazing! It is tough to find a group of people this committed to a common goal who complement each other so well!" His work on the Relay has introduced him to the benefits and enjoyment of walking, and the supportive vibe that comes through at WOW events made it easy for him to take the first step. "It is impressive to see the teamwork and camaraderie that develops in an event like the Relay."
