Ben Madison
LA Seasonal Program & Community Coordinator
Originally from rural Elkton, Oregon, I bring a deep love for the outdoors and a passion for youth development. I’ve successfully managed after school programs and coached a myriad of sports from Track and Field to Snowboarding/Alpine. I hold an M.A. in Teaching from Western Oregon University and have dedicated my career in education to creating supportive, empowering experiences for young people. Now based in Los Angeles, I first started with Chill as a Program Lead for my high school and now I’m excited to help expand access to boardsports and build meaningful community partnerships across Los Angeles. My favorite place to snowboard is Whistler Blackcomb when it’s dumping. The first CD I ever bought—Los Enanitos Verdes.
