As a Principal at the firm, Ben finds that RODE's diverse portfolio provides an exciting template for exploring how design can function within the complex layering of urban settings. Since joining the studio in 2010, the work has grown in scale and complexity, but the vision for improving lives through design remains the same. Ben holds a Master of Architecture degree from Northeastern University. When not in the studio, he can be found in any of the great green spaces north of the city with his partner and two children.
