While I already knew Ben, I had the opportunity to learn more about him during this exercise. For example, Ben owns and manages a gutter\/window cleaning business which has kept him very busy outside of football. He had gotten the idea to start this business from his dad, who made a joke about starting this business initially. After some research, Ben found the idea to be interesting and took his first steps into starting the business. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before coming to Morningside, Ben attended Wayne State College for his freshman and sophomore year. During this time, he switched his major quite a bit. Steffens averaged switching majors once every semester. The majors range anywhere from Graphic Design to Architecture &#8211; this man has a solid variety going!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ben grew up in Spirit Lake, Iowa. This town is a famous tourist attraction about two hours away from Sioux City. He graduated from Spirit Lake High School, as well. With a lake roughly ten minutes away from his house, Ben owns a fishing boat which he enjoys using during the summer. In his twenty-one years of life, Ben has never gotten a tattoo. He also has never had braces or a retainer, which I believe to be pretty impressive considering how straight his teeth are.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ben Steffens is a twenty-one year old Business Administration major here at Morningside University!
