When he isn’t in front of a computer screen, Zach enjoys spending time with his wife, skateboarding, and writing bios in the third person.

After work you will see him passing your car on his yellow bicycle or stalling on the side of the road on one of the mopeds he will eventually get to run properly. Originally from Turks and Caicos, he's made Atlanta his home, but misses shaking sand out of his shorts.
