Ben grew up primarily in Utah, the 2nd oldest of six children. Inspired by TV shows like The X-Files, Ben developed an interest in public service work and exploring the mysteries of the unknown. After graduating college, he worked for several private and public agencies, including investigating child sex crimes and severe physical abuse on the Utah County Sex Crimes Task Force. His specialized training later brought him to work for the FBI as a Special Agent. Ben’s six years of experience investigating a wide range of crimes at the state and federal level gave him an edge over other paranormal investigators when it came to analyzing or debunking evidence.
