Hi, I’m Zach! 👋

Design education at Figma in Amsterdam.

I recently launched a new project to share resources and guidance called presentation.design and joined the Charged Tech podcast as a co-host.

Previously, I led the communications design team at Square. I also work with the modern parfumerie Call of the Vialed.
