Ben was born and raised just outside Atlanta, Georgia and was attending Georgia Tech in Atlanta when he decided to spend a summer on Oahu interning with a nonprofit. That is how he ended up meeting Stanton, who introduced Ben to prophetic ministry. Though he had been going to church most of his life, spiritual gifts and especially prophecy were not often talked about and after experiences with prophetic ministry that he could not deny, he had a lot of questions. Through prayer, discussions, and seeing it in Scripture, he started stepping out in this gifting and the rest is history. He and Stanton have traveled across the world prophetically ministering to people which led to the founding of Kaula Tree. God has combined his passions for adventure, missions, and business to form a life that is beyond anything he could have asked for or imagined and he cannot wait to see all that God will continue to do with Kaula Tree!
