Bio
Ann Marie Woessner-Collins
I had the chance to work with Ben on a very complex and intense manufacturing project a couple years ago. Ben was able to manage a diverse group of both public and private interests to win a game changing project for Asheville. His calm yet intense style and ability to work with many types of people helped win the project. Ann Marie Collins

I’ve worked with Ben for the past 8 years collaborating on digital marketing strategies that were focused on growing the Asheville NC economy. He has a visionary mindset with business strategy and the results are reflected in the significant increase in commitment of capital investment into the greater Asheville area. It’s been a pleasure to work with Ben and also follow along with his path.
