Benjamin Greennagel is currently the Social Media Fellow for Family Equality, having previously served as a Social Media Intern in 2023.
Benjamin is a recent graduate of the Savannah College of Art and Design and is now pursuing a Master of Studies in creative writing at the University of Oxford. Previously, Benjamin served as a Virtual Student Federal Service intern with the U.S. Department of State’s Office of Diversity and Inclusion, helping launch the Facing Diplomacy campaign by utilizing online platforms like Twitter and StoryCorps to archive stories of courage from American diplomats.
In personal creative projects, Benjamin seeks to explore topics regarding queer theory and the experiences of gender-expansive people. Powerful immersive storytelling can evoke empathy, and Benjamin aims to use writing in this way while encouraging young people to think critically about the world. As a multimedia creative, Benjamin is especially excited by projects that incorporate sound design and video production to connect with a broader audience.
Outside of work, Benjamin can be found drinking too much coffee and scouring JSTOR for articles on art history.
