Ben has worked in the tax credit industry since 2012. He advises for-profit and not-for-profit clients on attracting New Markets Tax Credit (NMTC) financing to help them fill financing gaps while driving investments in low-income communities throughout the United States.

Ben also advises clients on other tax credit opportunities, including transferability, elective pay, and bonus credits brought about by the Inflation Reduction Act. Through these and other activities, he helps clients achieve various corporate initiatives, such as environmental, social, and governance (ESG) strategies, meeting regulatory requirements under the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA), managing effective tax rates, and increasing economic returns.

Prior to joining Moss Adams, Ben focused on underwriting, negotiating, structuring, and closing multimillion-dollar NMTC and Historic Tax Credits (HTC) equity investments, with an emphasis on working capital transactions and projects located on Tribal lands.

Earlier in his career, Ben practiced law in Connecticut with a focus on commercial business litigation, municipal law, and land use.
