About Me

Hello! I'm Zac, a software engineer and digital solutions consultant based in Portland, Oregon, where I live with my daughter and two cats. My journey in technology began when I wrote my first lines of code at age 8, sparking a lifelong passion for software development that eventually led me to earn my degree in Computer Science.

With over 18 years of experience in the tech industry, I've had the privilege of working with innovative companies ranging from startups to industry giants like Facebook, Nike, and Unity Technologies. Since 2005, I've been deeply involved in the startup ecosystem, contributing to the growth and success of companies like GarageGames, AppFog, and ZenBusiness.

What I Do

Currently, as the founder of Zadell Consulting, I help businesses leverage modern web technologies and AI to create impactful digital solutions. I specialize in:

  • Full-stack development using Next.js, React, and TypeScript
  • AI integration and custom solutions
  • Business process automation
  • High-performance web applications
  • Data-driven development
  • Sales funnel optimization

My Approach

I believe in building technology that not only works well but also creates meaningful value for users and businesses alike. My experience across different domains—from game development to fintech—has taught me the importance of combining technical excellence with practical business solutions.

When I'm not coding or consulting, you might find me exploring Portland's food scene, spending time with my daughter and cats, or staying current with the latest developments in tech.

I'm always interested in connecting with fellow tech enthusiasts and businesses looking to innovate. Whether you want to discuss a potential project or just chat about technology, feel free to reach out.
