(WTNH) -- Ben Berkowitz is a young man in his 30's from New Haven who is an innovator and has gotten the attention of the Obama White House on several occasions.

What's his deal? He, along with colleagues, invented seeclickfix.com after being turned off by some ugly graffiti that he wanted the city to take care of.

When that didn't happen for several years, he took matters into his own hands and created the website, which is now in cities all over the world.

Citizens are telling city government where the infrastructure problems are.

Berkowitz has made fixing things like storm drains sexy.
