Find Your Path

A personalized approach to discovering your career path

A newsletter exploring the practical AND big picture questions about college and career planning.

Welcome!

Welcome to Your Subplot! My name is Ben. I enjoy serving as a guide to people as they determine the next steps in their career journey. In my 15 years in education, I have had the privilege of helping over 500 young people with their college and career plans. My own career journey has had many twists and turns (just ask my amazingly patient wife!), and I have leaned on the wisdom and support of others in those times. My hope is that I can take the wisdom I have received, and give it away to others. You can learn more about me and my journey here.

YOUR SUBPLOT

“I can only answer the question ‘What am I to do?’ if I can answer the prior question ‘Of what story or stories do I find myself a part?'”
-Alasdair MacIntyre

In a story framework, a subplot is a secondary story that supports the overarching plotline.  Our lives are secondary yet important and unique narratives in this big, grand story about God (the hero) rescuing his beloved humanity. And God, even though he could have done it himself, has given each of us a part to play in this story. This has significant implications for each person’s personal and professional life.

When we realize we can play a unique and important role in a story much bigger than ourselves, this can infuse purpose and clarity into our careers and every part of our lives.

My hope is that when you read Your Subplot, you are reminded that you have a unique and important role to play in God’s big story.
