“It would be hard to over state Bennie’s value as a digital marketing leader. In the three years I have been working with him on the Dr Pepper account, he has been a go-to resource for me on digital and social strategy. If he doesn’t already know the best path to take in a given situation (which is rare), he has a knack for very quickly digging in and finding the best solution. His never-ending curiosity and desire to push himself and our work beyond the status quo is admirable. Bennie is both confident and poised, and he makes those around him feel as if they’re going to succeed no matter the challenge. Selfishly, I always want to have Bennie in my corner. ”
