About Me

After graduating from The Conservatory of Recording Arts and Sciences in 2009, I spread to every corner of the audio industry. I’ve worked in recording studios, I’ve worked on video games, animations, award-winning indie films, podcasts, and more. I’ve had the pleasure to work with some of the best independent creators and some of the giants in media such as Disney, Coca-Cola, Game Show Network, Adult Swim (Cartoon Network), 4KidsTV(FOX), NBC Global, and more. I love working with passionate creators of all walks. Let’s get to work!

Testimonials

OUT.STAN.DING!!! Wow! What a finished product! Zach took my supplied podcast intro/outro voiceover and matched it PERFECTLY to his amazing composition. I could not be happier! He captured the theme and the feel of the podcast to a T! I don't know how he does it. Fast delivery, great communication, and top-notch creation. Don't debate, don't think about it, don't ponder. This is your music composition guy!
