Ben Greene is a graduate of Brandeis University and a DEI professional. As one of the only out transgender people in his town, he became established as a go-to source of information about the trans community and fell in love with advocacy and education. After giving a TEDx talk in the spring of 2019, he decided to pursue advocacy work full time and now speaks at companies internationally about how to improve the inclusivity of their workplace. He is originally from Weston, Connecticut and is spending his time in quarantine reading, playing the ukulele, and writing a book!

I enjoy the creative challenges in marketing and communications, especially knowledge translation for nonexpert audiences. In my communications role at the Lurie Institute for Disability Policy, our Twitter audience responded well to the clear, quickly digestible content and graphics that I created. I found from analyzing engagement data that this content was successful when experts could reshare and educate their own following on complex policy topics.
