Collegiate Academies’ student populations have the highest rates of poverty, disability, incarceration, and academic deficit in the state. Many enter the ninth grade on a fourth-grade level or lower in both reading and math. Yet, after over a decade of developing and utilizing a set of proven tools, over 90 percent of Collegiate Academies students earn college admission. Ben’s work alongside Collegiate Academies has won him various awards and recognition, including accolades from the Accelerate Institute, The Oprah Winfrey Show, and multiple “Best Places to Work” prize committees.

Ben has been a fellow at the Jack Kent Cooke Foundation, Achievement First's Charter Network Accelerator, the Pahara-Aspen Institute, Cambiar Education, and the Broad Academy.
