Zac was born in San Diego, California but moved to Kansas City when he was 11. On a whim, he decided to take a painting class in high school. What he didn’t expect to find was a new creative outlet that would eventually turn into his passion. During university, Zac studied Graphic Design. However, due to his course load and athletic commitments, he had to put his painting on the back-burner. After graduating with his degree, Zac found he had more time to focus on his portrait and abstract works where he experiments with the balance of color and space in his expressionist work.
