Bio
Brad Frost
I'm extremely fortunate to have Ben around! In our client design system projects, there are always weird technical things β obtuse configs, weird bugs, eye-roll-y client requirements β that blow up in our faces and make our jobs hard. These types of problems are often very unsexy, but are always necessary to solve. And that's where Ben shines! We can count on him to swoop in, evaluate any situation, and cut through Gordian Knots with sharp technical solutions and pragmatism. And somehow he even does it with a smile on his face. I've had the privilege of working with Ben on a number of projects, and others would be lucky to get the chance to work with him as well.

Iβve had the pleasure of working with Ben on a new and innovative project during my time at Google. What really impressed me about Ben was his empathy for the user and critical thinking abilities when facing complex problems. We experienced several technical hurdles and Ben was able to navigate them flawlessly and proposed solid solutions. Ben is definitely someone I would love to work with again!
