Zach’s journey into music started when he was in fifth grade, where he began to learn the cello. This journey flourished in high school, where he led the cello section in his school’s Symphony Orchestra, played as the lead cellist in the musical pit orchestra and became cello section leader of the Detroit Metropolitan Youth Symphony.
He possesses a deep love of classical music from the romantic era, with his favorite composers being Respighi, Mahler, R. Strauss, and Ravel.
Outside of music, Zach is studying Biochemistry and Molecular Biology and hopes to pursue a minor in Pharmacology and Toxicology. He plans to continue his academic studies into grad school, and eventually work as a pharmaceutical engineer and drug researcher."
