Benito grew up at the beach in La Serena, Chile, developing a deep love for the ocean from a young age. From scuba diving to boogie boarding, he eventually fell in love with surfing. He moved to New York in 2018, where he continued surfing and eventually connected with Surfrider.
He now leads StokedShare, a platform he cofounded to connect surfers and photographers, uniting two of his passions.
