Inspired by his close relationships and life experiences, Benjamin creates heartfelt and imaginative stories that resonate with children and their families.

His books often tackle tough scenarios with warmth and sensitivity, like helping children feel at ease about going to a foster home in Where Oh Where Do the Children Go?, or celebrating the special bond between stepparents and children in My Stepdad. For his younger audience, he uses relatable characters—often lovable animals or stuffed toys—to gently guide readers through life’s challenges while sparking their imaginations.

He currently lives by the ocean, where he enjoys paddleboarding and spending time with his daughter, who lives with him full-time and inspires much of his creativity.

Benjamin’s current project is a series of imaginative books designed to inspire the next generation of storytellers. His published works include My Magical Christmas Eve Adventure, with An Enchanted Easter Egg Hunt set to release soon. This enchanting series will take young readers on thrilling journeys—from travelling with aliens to uncovering the secret lives of zoo animals after hours.
