He is the creator of Wednesday Waffle, a social connection concept that has resonated with audiences around the world and led to appearances on Today in Australia and NBC in New York.

With a background in copywriting and content creation, Zachary has spent over a decade writing and crafting compelling stories across fast-paced and highly competitive industries. He has contributed to The Betoota Advocate and, more recently, his writing on parenthood has found a growing audience online, where he shares an unfiltered account of the early months of becoming a dad.

Zachary lives in Melbourne with his partner and their son. Becoming Dad is his debut book.
