About Ben Keller

Grew up in the small town of Greenville Delaware. Aspired to be a surgeon my whole life and follow in my father’s footsteps. At Boston College I was excited by all of the other career opportunities. I did a stint in Real Estate Private Equity but wanted to be responsible for more surface area of a company so I decided to take a shot at working for a startup. The most talked-about startup in Boston at the time was HubSpot. I joined the operations team and got to watch a company go Public. From there, I moved to the Product org where I was the first PM working on the CRM. I built HubSpot’s CRM for 5 years which is where I met Remen, my now cofounder.
