About Me

Hi, welcome to AlreadySmart.net! My name is Benjamin St Phillip and believe it or not, I own a basic phone. I created this site to help you ditch your smartphone, buy a basic phone and live a simpler life.

Wait, am I some type of weirdo or perhaps super old or maybe even Amish?

Nope, none of the above. In fact, I'm a fairly normal midwesterner. I am 39 years old, happily married with a beautiful wife and fortunate to be a father to 3 incredible children. I am a software engineer by trade and I have two college degrees. I love Jesus Christ and I enjoy playing/coaching/watching sports (especially basketball) and almost any outdoor activity. To learn more about me and why I created this site read: Why I Created This Site.
