Ben was born in Manchester, England, and spent his formative years in Bilgola Beach, a picturesque coastal town on Sydney's Northern Beaches. Prior to embarking on a career in the film and television industry, Ben had a passion for amateur boxing, which he pursued for an impressive 10 years.
As his interest in filmmaking grew, Ben devoted three years to studying at Australia's leading film and television training school, On Camera Studio, under the guidance of renowned instructor Sandra Lee Paterson. This rigorous training laid the foundation for his future success in the industry.
Ben's early career was marked by a steady stream of television appearances, including roles in the popular Australian series "McLeod's Daughters" and numerous short films and theatre productions. One of his most notable achievements was starring in the independent feature film "Newcastle," which premiered at the prestigious 2008 Tribeca Film Festival.
In a significant career move, Ben relocated to Los Angeles, where he quickly established himself as a versatile and in-demand actor. He landed roles in a variety of film and television projects, including the Universal Pictures production "Blue Crush 2." Most recently, Ben secured a role in season 5 of Amazon's critically acclaimed series "Bosch," which is set to air in early 2019.
