Bio

Major: Business

Ben Brenda is a Business major who appreciates Union for its size and strong sense of community. He feels the smaller campus environment makes it easier to connect with others and build meaningful relationships.

His favorite subject in high school was English, and his dream is to become a business consultant. In his free time, Ben enjoys hanging out with friends. His favorite drink is Dr. Pepper, his go-to road trip snack is Gushers, and his favorite meal is sushi. He stays active on TikTok and has one dog at home.

Ben’s football icon is Justin Tucker. As a teammate, he sees himself as someone who gets along with everyone and brings good chemistry to the team. He wants to be remembered for his honesty and the positive attitude he brings to the field. His second-best sport is soccer.

A fun fact about Ben is that he’s left-footed but right-handed—adding a unique edge to his athletic skills.

He credits all the football coaches at Union for having a positive impact on his experience and growth as both a player and person.
