Zac and I previously worked together where he was my go-to person for anything tech related. He has a positive attitude, hard work ethic, and generous soul. Zac is a lover of Lego; a very talented graphic designer and his Instagram account is filled with some amazing travel photos that make me want to pack my bags and explore the world.
