Ben joined La Macchia Group in 2002 and has since led the company’s efforts in the use of GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and real estate procurement to benefit its clients. More recently, Ben has focused his attention on business development and future ownership development in the firm. This focus has consisted of expanding La Macchia Group’s presence primarily in the West Coast market while also leading several other company initiatives. He obtained his degree in Finance, Investment, and Banking from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and subsequently worked as a trader for some of the nation’s leading commodity trading firms. This wealth of knowledge in finance, coupled with extensive experience in the financial facility design/build business, has enabled Ben to work with clients and team members on strategically addressing many complex matters.
When not at work, Ben can usually be found camping, riding his cruiser around Tosa, or playing bocce with his wife Tayla and two sons, Raffa and Lucio. He also loves working on his old house, reading, and snowmobiling. And when not doing those things he continues his lifelong quest to find the greatest roller coaster ever!
