For the first years of his professional life, Zach traveled throughout the country fighting wildfires. While he thrived on the adrenaline of handling potentially life-threatening situations, he also developed a severe addiction that ultimately led to multiple incarcerations and trips to treatment. After finding sobriety in 2017, Zach felt called to translate his ability to calmly navigate intense, chaotic environments and his personal experience with the devastation of addiction into a way to bring hope and healing. From the first call to aftercare planning with clients, Zach makes it clear that he will not negotiate with the disease of addiction. His willingness to show up and walk shoulder to shoulder with the family in their most difficult moments earns him the opportunity to be direct in times of crisis.

Zach is a board-certified interventionist and holds an industry standard CIP and CCMI for intervention competence. He has orchestrated countless successful interventions and has joined as a second seat on many more. Zach’s approach to intervention is the Johnson Model as trained by Darren Hobbs after joining his team in 2020. Prior to becoming a full-time interventionist, Zach counseled young men in an inpatient treatment setting. His calm demeanor and down-home delivery help him build strong trusting relationships with his clients and their families.

When he’s not working, Zach enjoys family time with his wife Rachel, their two boys, and his dog Banjo.
