to get out on the water daily , blending a mix of nature with his hectic work schedule away from the water .

When not on the water in Tennessee , Zack travels wherever he can . Recent trips , he tells us , include paddling around in Lake Louise , Canada , Lake Arrowhead in California , Spencer Glacier in Alaska , where he kayaked around the ice and snow , and overseas from him in the clear hot seas surrounding the island of Bora Bora in French Polynesia .

“ Being able to work , travel and do the things I love has been a blessing . Everything in my life , from my days being an intern getting people coffee at radio stations to being on-air myself , to working in PR for someone else , to now owning & expanding my firm , has happened for a reason . And through all the big life choices , I have always taken the time to think while on the water , whether on a jet ski , a kayak , or just simply sitting on a dock to zen myself and my thoughts .”

With ZTPR recently expanding its reach beyond North American waters to places like Australia , the UK , Singapore and Switzerland , the future for Zack looks bright . And with investments in health brands like Seoul Juice ( https :// seouljuice . com ), kayak companies like TRAK , and others , all while innovating the PR industry daily and speaking at colleges in between promoting his best-selling book he wrote with Mark Cuban , David Meltzer and The Wolf of Wall Street Jordan Belfort entitled , Enough of the Bull $ hit , Zack hasn ’ t stopped ... and tells us he never will .

Being out on the water brings joy and so much more to so many people like Zack that it is a real treat to see how paddling , in general , has given him and others success and fulfilment in more ways than just tangible items .
