My name's Zach, I'm a game designer and developer from Los Angeles. I'm currently working on Worming from Home, a comedy simulation game about a worm working a remote job in finance!

Additional projects that I contributed to on Steam include Keep Me Posted (Blue Monarch Games), Curtain Call (Dramatis Personae at USC), and Saleblazers (Airstrafe Interactive).
