Benten Woodring

Senior Web Designer

For over ten years, I’ve built and led cross-disciplinary teams with my own studio, working for world-class agencies, and creating identities and websites for household name brands and startups. I've done work for the likes of Spotify, Peacock, Salesforce, Chipotle and Indeed, among others. My work has been featured by Fast Company, Webflow and more. When I'm not drawing rectangles, I like to spend time on my bike and hiking in the mountains with my family.
