About Benjamin Shrader My name is Benjamin Shrader. When I was 5 years old, I was diagnosed with very severe dyslexia. I was told several times that I would never learn how to read, but I did not let that stop me. After many years of therapy, I was finally able to reach a third grade reading level, which is the level I am still currently at. Because of my severe dyslexia, dyscalculia, and dysgraphia, I was homeschooled until high school and then attended a traditional high school. School was very difficult for me in both settings. However, I worked hard because I knew the importance of education.

Because of that hard work, I was able to attend Texas A&M university where I was a member of an exclusive program formally known as Startup Aggieland. This program helped students start businesses in their area of interests. I knew because of my challenges with reading, working for myself might be my only option for employment. But, I had no product or widget I wanted to sell. The only skill I had was the ability to talk.

When I examined the world around me, I noticed the simple truth that college kids liked to party. "If I controlled partying, college kids will like me". Not only did I see a business opportunity, but I also saw a chance to be popular and make friends, the dream of any outcast. I started a promotion and production company called Shrader Promotions LLC. I started small by promoting events. Slowly, I worked my way up to coordinating my own events. After a few years, I built the largest event production company in College Station. I've worked with amazing artists including Parker McCollum, Whiz Kalifa, G-Eazy, and many more.

At the height of my business's success, I was struck down with a life-threatening golf ball sized brain tumor. After surgery, radiation, and learning to walk again, I transitioned my business to be based out of Austin, Texas and returned to leading my company. I look forward to speaking with you.
