Zach is a proud Minnesotan who spent ten summers at the same Wisconsin sleepaway camp, which he credits for an outlook that's equal parts optimist and cheerleader. A former baseball kid and a recent holistic health and herbs devotee, his motto is simple: we take the work seriously, we don't take ourselves seriously. Favorite credits include Scary New Year, Loafers, The Winter's Tale, Blueberry Muffin Baby, and an NBA Infinite commercial alongside Karl-Anthony Towns.
