  • 012 → BENJAMIN SMITH ↗ how to build a successful DTC brand & a healthy life

    Benjamin was born in England and moved to the Washington D.C. when he was a toddler. Given his English heritage, Ben grew up watching football (soccer) and is fanatical, 5th generation Aston Villa supporter. Ben also regularly watches f1, where he supports Lewis Hamilton. Ben knew from an early age that he wanted to be an entrepreneur, as he never quite fit the traditional mold of school or a corporate job. 

    Before moving to Austin in the spring of 2016, Benjamin attended Wake Forest University, where he launched two boutique gyms during his Junior year. Ben raised outside funding, scaled the businesses, and eventually sold both in the spring of 2019. Benjamin also worked as a Marketing Director at Houston-based En-Plast Technology, where he oversaw all marketing efforts. Benjamin is also the founder of Disco - a men’s skin + health care company.
