Welcome to my website
a sort of blog, from Ben Saren
this is my website
I'm Ben, a Marketing executive and behaved citizen by day, unruly insomniac by night. A dash of mania, a sprinkle of wonder, combined with a heaping tablespoon of impulsiveness. Unwilling to follow the masses, longing for truth and meaning, having some fun along the way.

Ben is currently Vice President of Marketing at Litle & Co., one of America’s fastest growing companies and a pioneer in e-commerce payment solutions and Payments Intelligence.
Ben is one of those rare individuals that you meet and just know will be successful. For nearly 10 years I have watched him take on numerous challenges with conviction, drive and integrity.
