October 2010: Zach learns that being self-employed is both a blessing and a curse. He dedicates a nauseating amount of hours to staring at his computer screen. Unsatisfied, he looks for a way to snap the unsatisfying routine.
January 2010: Zach discovers that his passion for sports has been surpassed by his passion to write and scratch the creative itch. He switches careers to become a self-employed Internet Marketer and a featured writer for Tech Cocktail.
2009: With only six weeks of training, Zach runs his first marathon. He vows that it will be his last. Little does he know…
2008: Zach graduates with a BBA in Marketing from the UW School of Business. Despite his deep admiration of Madison, Wisconsin he seeks reprieve from the miserable whore that is Midwest winters. He flees to the consistently ideal climate of San Diego to take a job working in the San Diego Padres front office. Win.

2005: 2005 renders zero memories. Too much drinking.
2004: Zach attends the University of Madison-Wisconsin and in the process develops a new passion for education. Even more so, he also enjoys not living at home. Adventure/education addiction commences.
2003: Bored with school, Zach runs a satirical campaign to get his friend Tyson elected as Prom King. This campaign includes between-class, live performances of original sophomoric songs in the hallways and informational pamphlets posted throughout the school’s walls. Tyson is elected Prom King.
2002: Zach takes his first stab at an entrepreneurial venture in starting a profitable ticket resale operation.
2001: Zach discovers that being fat is un-fun. He develops a mild obsession with exercise.
1999: Despite good grades, Zach is repeatedly sent to the principal’s office for making friends laugh (or “disturbing classmates” from the vantage point of those who don’t appreciate said humor). Parents forget to punish. No lessons are learned.
1998: To add to his computer game addiction, Zach discovers online chat rooms. More hours than can be counted are wasted debating who should be the Chicago Bears starting quarterback with strangers. As it turns out, the correct answer was, “it doesn’t matter”.
1996: To complement his already highly sedentary lifestyle, Zach develops a passion for both video and computer games.
1990-1995: Zach develops a severe sports addiction as a direct result of being in the Chicago-land area during the reign of Michael Jordan. This is both humorous and tortuously ironic because young Zach is quite fat and un-athletic.
December 1985: Zach escapes the womb. His plot to escape the working world would begin minutes later.
