Ben Kahan

Hello! I’m a passionate maker, snowboarder, and lover of all winter sports. Since coming back to the mountains, I’ve been going around 30 days per year, entirely in the north east. I am from Vermont, grew up going to ski school at Jay Peak where my grandparents lived less than 15 minutes from the mountain. I spent numerous hours in Jay and its surrounding area for over 15 years, through all seasons. I currently live in the greater Boston area and work as a manufacturing engineer. My educational background is in mechanical engineering and data science. I’ve been 3D printing for over a decade and I’ve used my knowledge and skills to make custom stomp pads and winter sports accessories, all 3D printed and designed by myself. I’m deeply invested in turning my passion into a career in this field. Like many, I feel my best on the mountain, or at the very least, outside.
