Our Team

David Lee

Chief Operating Officer

I started Bened Life in the US because I dreamed of building a world where all families can thrive. I am proud of my team and their dedication to support my vision.

Carletus Willis

Chief Growth Officer

I love to "get lost" in the adventure of non-fiction of new places and people, while observing all the differences and similarities.

Emily Dixon

Chief Marketing Officer

Tator Tot and Breezy. Guess which one is the dog and which one is the cat and which one actually likes tater tots and you win all the magical internet points!

Sunny Cash

Chief Community Officer

I'm the full-time friend maker around here. If I were to give anything to a friend, it would be a copy of Eric Garcia's book, "We Are Not Broken."

Noelle Patno

Chief Science Officer

It's important to me that we promote relevant and accurate scientific information. We work hard to prove, with evidence, that our probiotics can make a positive difference.

Ravinder Pal Singh

Director of IT & Project Management

I consider myself to be the Iron Man of Project Management (and everyone agrees).

Casey Arendt

Editor in Chief / Director of Science Communication

I work hard and play harder. Outside of work, you can catch me doing one of two things: consuming anything with chocolate OR training for my next triathlon.

Ryan Carroll

Retention Director

People who know me know I love to help others, and that's why I love it at Bened Life. Outside of work, I like to camp with my family and kick back with tacos.

Joe Hobbs

Influencer Marketing Director

Yes, I like pineapple on pizza. Yes I would like to be addressed as the Bened Life Professional Social Media Scroller. And yes, we can be friends!

Mary Guillebeau

Performance Creative Director

Come along with me on a bike ride along the river and we'll find the perfect picnic spot. I'm bringing Ginger Yuzu Water Kefir, what probiotics would you bring?

Michael Haddad

Finance Director

My happy place is playing a game of chess while tucked away under the shade of a tree in my family's olive grove.

Lynda Yang

Human Resources Director

In first grade, I picked my own name. I came home from school one day and decided Lynda embodied who I was. And I've been Lynda ever since.

Roosevelt Sledge

Customer Happiness Specialist

By day, I am a Customer Happiness superhero. By night, I am the Connoisseur of French Fries. I wear these capes to deliver smiles across the globe.

LaToya Gay

Customer Happiness Specialist

When given the choice between fiction and non-fiction, I'm team fiction all day, everyday.

Rose Hughes

Neurodiversity and Disability Specialist

I say we all bring a dish from our countries, and belt out karaoke songs into the night! I know what I'd sing first, do you?

Isiaiah Tien Grewal

Neurodiversity and Disability Specialist

Disney World is my happy place. I've compiled an ultimate guide on how and why it can be one of the funnest Autistic travel destinations.

Melody Grewal

Neurodiversity and Disability Advocate

My goal is to promote and support nonspeakers around the world. Please check out the International Association for Spelling as Communication.

Steven Eury

Parkinson's Community Specialist

As a religious home-fermenter, I fit right in with the culture here at Bened Life. I make my own dairy kefir which I use in my ultra-energizing breakfast.

Allison Topperwein

Parkinson's Community Specialist

Along with my husband and work partner, I'm one of Bened's favorite shaky people! My goal is to light others from within.

Tiffany Joseph

Neurodiversity and Disability Advocate

I love how neurodivergent social media connects us to people with the same shared experiences and fills in gaps in understanding each other.

Aaliyah Drew

Senior Graphic Designer

My pets are lovingly named Lanky Panky and Old Man. They're my gaming buddies! Can you guess their species based off their names?

Audrey Yeh

Marketing Associate / Project Coordinator

I find solace in the simple pleasures of hiking through the forest, listening to trickling streams, smelling a smoky campfire, and waking up to chirping birds.

Daiz Bonbon

Customer Happiness Manager

Fun fact: I nicknamed my kiddo Yumi, which translates to beautiful friend in Japanese. She is my sun and daily reminder to embrace the warmth in life.

Casey-Lee Flood

Writer

All brains deserve supportive acceptance! For me, probiotics greatly decreased harmful BFRB. My goal is to share these life-changing benefits with everyone.

Colleen Cabedo

Technical Assistant

To me, food + music is the magic combo for bringing people together. I am always down to bond over Korean BBQ or a jam session.

Suraj Pandey

Website Developer

My two favorite foods are corn pizza and chole bhature. I would love to share them with you over a lunch break.

Syed Jeelani

Project Coordinator

I consider myself a foodie. If you want the cheat code to my heart, it's anything Indian, Turkish, or Italian.
