About Ben Gershen

Thanks for taking the time to get to know me better through my Linkedin page- I appreciate you stopping by!Professionally, I am proud to call the event industry my home. Whether helping event planners and producers tell a better story and breathe some life into their digital experiences, sourcing the right talent to dazzle audiences at in person events, or harnessing the power of talent & technology to pack dance floors and provide an elevated DJ entertainment experience- I'm somewhat of a special event Swiss army knife. My focus is on helping others tell a better story, and delivering to them a one-of-a-kind product with exceptional service, style, and class. Personally, I'm a high-energy individual with a passion for learning and building new relationships. When I'm not roaming the streets of Portland with my miniature dachshund, you'll likely find me in a hip hop dance class, at a concert, on a chairlift, or flying across the country to perform. Feel free to send me a personalized connection request or contact me directly at ben.gershen@brandlive.com if you want to chat about mutual areas of interest or need help elevating your next in person or digital engagement
