Benjamin Cameron Hunt ~ Computer Guru & Poler
Since he was 13, Ben has been tinkering with computers and learning as much as he could about them. Having worked in every aspect of the computer industry, from the lowly data entry & lab consultant, to the prestigious corporate environment; he has seen it all first-hand. Starting in November, his many travels for pole workshops inspired him to create his project, Pole-ebrities' Workshops, which is a combination of a Facebook Group & Google Calendar that tracks the dates/locations of many pole workshops worldwide. He is also employed by UnitedPoleArtists.com on several of their projects.
