Zac's Bio
I have been with the Oakland Fire Department as a firefighter and a paramedic since 1998. Prior to that, I had a number of short (but brutally cold and lonely) jobs working as a peregrine falcon watcher, an elephant seal tagger, a municipal dump laborer, and a muffin delivery driver. In addition, I continue to work summers as a whitewater river guide for ARTA river trips.
After high school I attended Deep Springs College in California, a strange and tiny two-year school in the California desert which revolves around the three pillars of literature, testosterone, and cattle. Following that, I finished my Bachelor's degree at Brown University and went on to earn a Master's in Range Management at UC Berkeley. I have yet to manage a range.
I'm currently living in Berkeley with my wife Shona, our daughter Perseverance, and our son Maccabee.
I also have considerable experience with commercial writing and I can usually provide quick turnarounds for your projects. I am comfortable writing catalog/advertising copy as well as articles for trade publications. Ghostwriting services are also available. If you would like to see samples of my work or discuss availability and rates, please contact me at workingfirebook@yahoo.com. I look forward to working with you on your project.
