After editing for the long-running show “America’s Most Wanted” for nearly four years, Ben moved to Los Angeles to pursue film. Since, he’s has had the privilege to work with inspiring talent like actors Harold Perrineau Jr. (Lost, Zero Dark Thirty), Rutina Wesley (True Blood), Larry Gilliard Jr. (The Wire) and Linden Ashby (Mortal Kombat). He feels honored to have edited films with extremely talented directors who trust his creative direction and enjoy a collaborative approach.
