Benjamin is an author and screenwriter. He grew up watching adventure movies like Indiana Jones and The Goonies, pretending to live out those plots on his family’s acreage in Nebraska. After it became “a little much” for an adult pretending to be a globetrotting explorer, he earned his bachelor’s degree in Film and Theatre from University of Nebraska at Lincoln and channeled his adventurous spirit onto the page. Benjamin won Best Teleplay Honorable Mention at the 2025 Omaha Film Festival. He also won the 2018 Nashville Film Festival Pitch Competition (see more info on blog post), and earned his MFA in Creative Writing from Mount Saint Mary’s in Los Angeles.
