My last name is pronounced ben-wah and comes from the Latin, benedictus, which literally means:
The one who speaks the good.
Through directing, performing, writing, teaching, and leading, I try to speak the good that I see in every corner of our world. I co-founded a non-profit called Wonderhunt to help share stories that make our lives and our world a little more full of curiosity and meaning. And I live near Chicago with my wife, Karen, and our three amazing kids, Finnden, Ellis, and Ona.
