Hi šš¼ my name is Ben.
I started writing in March 2023ā¦ three months into recuperating from health issues, and learning to live with both a chronic health issue and a life outside of the world I helped create over at Edroloā¦ and, to live with uncertainty, loneliness and the frustration that sometimes bringsā¦
Fast forward
Itās now February 2025 and Iām still in that same place, unfortunately. That said, there is so much more to be positive about given a lot has changed over the last two years (AI-everything, growing our family and enjoying my time with them, etc.).
Right now, Iām really interested in the intersection of AI and education. Very interesting timesā¦
If I had to sum myself up:
Learning stuff, tinkering and occasionally writing about it. Father & Husband / Rice-lover / Cofounder of Edrolo / Cares about humanity

Iāll only share things that I think are interesting (I know, Iām asking you to trust me with what I deem interesting)ā¦ such as the following:
founding and scaling a SaaS business from 0 => 200+ employees
raising funds from venture capital (equity) and venture debt investors
education / education technology / schools / curriculum / teaching & learning
leadership and management thoughts
productivity thoughts
