Ben Ohashi

account Manager

Ben is inspired by what could be — a better product, a better system, a better life. He takes this philosophy and approach in everything he does.

Before joining the Against team, Ben used this perspective to build one of the most successful and innovative real estate companies in Idaho. From there, he took those learnings and started his own investing venture in 2019.

Today he focuses the majority of his efforts on strategy, data analytics, and media to equip clients with a competitive edge in their respective industries. He’s the kind of person you come to and ask, “what’s the next big thing?”

When he’s not working with clients at Against, Ben acts as the Program Manager at the College of Innovation + Design where he also teaches a course called Growth Hacking.

Outside of his professional life, Ben enjoys living vicariously through the travel and culinary experience of the likes of David Chang and Anthony Bourdain (RIP). He’s been to Momofuku once and now claims he’s a regular. There’s a good chance you’ll find him in the kitchen attempting to be a decent cook or traveling somewhere seeking new experiences — oftentimes with his dog Hudson.
