“I worked with Ben for over a year conducting flight tests and performing hardware and firmware validation on developmental aircraft. Ben was a very positive influence to other employees and was a joy to work with. He was very ambitious and always wanted to continuously push himself to always be better. He displayed a good amount of leadership with positive reinforcement and success in every project he was assigned to. ”
