Zack is an Army OIF Veteran, having deployed to Ramadi, Iraq with the 3rd ID 3-15 Infantry. Following his honorable discharge in 2012, Zack embarked on a successful executive career in AI and Robotics, where he cultivated global teams and provided support to some of the world's leading companies.

In addition to his professional pursuits, Zack has been a committed mentor to over 100 veterans, guiding their transition from military service to the corporate world since 2014. His passion for helping his fellow servicemen led to the establishment of the Mountain Valor Foundation and Mountain Valor Research in January 2024.

The Mountain Valor Foundation's mission is to provide support to wounded veterans and foster a community that encourages mutual aid. Concurrently, Mountain Valor Research is pioneering the development of targeted PTSD therapies. This is being achieved through the largest longitudinal research study ever conducted with special operations troops.

Zack currently resides in Denver, Colorado, with his wife Samantha and their beloved dog, Frank.
