Hello there!
Meet Ben

Thanks for stopping by!
I am a second career developer living near Miami originally from California. I have lived in places ranging from NYC to Tel Aviv and have experience building developer communities in diverse regions across the globe. Before making the career switch, I worked as a community organizer and educator for nearly 10 years throughout the US.
Currently, I am the Head of Developer Relations at Fuel, and a Principal Consultant at Yalla, DevRel LLC. Previously, I worked as the Team Lead for the Developer Relations Egineers at Parity Technologies, as the Ruby developer advocate at Vonage, and as a lead developer relations engineer at New Relic. My focus as a developer advocate has primarily been on developer experience and education, namely:
- Documentation and developer platforms
- SDKs and tooling
- Educating developers through Twitch streams, talks and tutorials
