“Another great event. Thanks to ULI Philadelphia for having us. Met a bunch of great people and the panelists inspired me to work on a few new things in the upcoming weeks to keep growing, changing, and evolving the business.

We’ve moved around a lot over the years and the people, collaborations, and opportunities I’ve had because of that have truly shifted my perspective. The way I approach design, projects, and business in general has been directly influenced by these moves and the amazing people along the way.

After some very thoughtful discussions last night, I’m very excited for what’s next and I’m looking forward to new opportunities and continued partnerships in the Philadelphia area.

Two years ago, I started ZAC Collaborative with a clear vision: to build a studio focused on thoughtful, strategic design and to create work that helps people connect more meaningfully with the spaces around them.

Since then, we’ve had the chance to work on projects in branding, signage, wayfinding, and experiential graphics with clients, partners, and teams who have challenged us, trusted us, and made the work better every step of the way.

Building a business has been equal parts exciting, humbling, energizing, and honestly a little wild at times. But I’m incredibly grateful for what these first two years have brought and for the people who have been part of it.

Thank you to everyone who has supported ZAC Collaborative, collaborated with us, referred us, hired us, and believed in what we’re building.

We’re still early, and that’s the exciting part.

Looking forward to what’s next.

Last year we had the opportunity to partner with OVG to redesign the concession stand experience at AutoZone Park for the Memphis Redbirds.

From brand-forward identities to cohesive stand graphics, the goal was to create something that felt as energetic and memorable as game day itself.

Excited to see last year’s work back in action as the Redbirds come out hot this season!

Always fun seeing good design meet great baseball ⚾⚾⚾
