Engineer, COO, and Lifelong Learner
I'm Ben Lyddane, a mechanical and software engineer, and COO at BuildVision.IO. I love learning new things, and the internet makes it possible to learn almost anything and apply it across different fields.
I'm based in Potomac, MD, where I explore diverse interests from engineering and business to personal pursuits, connecting ideas across disciplines.
