Ben James, is also known as “Bonj” by his friends. You will often find him bummin through the halls with his boys or on the baseball diamond, along with most BSM sporting events. If he’s not chasing a teacher down for extra practice problems, he's usually playing video games or hanging out with his boys. He spends his summer bouncing from Chester Bird game to Chester Bird game. He masters TaeKwonDo on the weeknights while eating his daily kale salad. He enjoys spending holiday weekends at his cabin doing all sorts of activities that include wiffle ball, tubing, and wakeboarding. Being the Fantasy football guru that he is, many people send him lineups to craft prior to the noon games on Sundays.
