I had the pleasure of working with Zack for nearly 5 years. I was blown away by his unique combination of right-brained creative thinking and deep understanding of existing and emerging technology.
It was this rare blend that allowed him to lead end to end programs from flawless brand strategy to best in class data driven performance marketing.
His visible passion and infectious energy were an inspiration to his team and partners and made him a pleasure to work with. Simply put, whatever Zack gets his focus on – will win.

I've had the pleasure of working with Zachary for the past year and understand first hand what a unique talent he is.
He has an amazingly rare blend of deep marketing knowledge, strong technical proficiency and proven leadership skills that puts him on the bleeding edge of his craft.
He is able to translate this incredible combination into powerful and deeply meaningful business solutions and drive innovation in his team like I've never seen before. He truly is an A+ talent and can't wait to see what the future holds for him.
Robert Loeb, CISSP
Zach is one of the best strategists that I have had the pleasure to work with, his professionalism and acumen are world class. Zach has proved himself as a leader among senior executives and is easily among the top level of professionals that I have worked with at the Sands and elsewhere. During the time that we worked together Zach's work was thorough, he included key people in insuring that the right solution was presented, not afraid to defer to the SME's when considering factors that affected business decisions outside of his professional knowledge and able to quickly adapt new knowledge into the process.

Zack was a valuable partner in driving innovation and growth at LVS. He is equal parts intelligent and driven. Through passion and creativity, he rapidly transformed Digital Marketing at LVS. While the results and records speak for themselves, it is the inspirational leadership with which he has elevated both his team and colleagues that is most impressive.
