Zach is a multifaceted healer, herbalist, chef, yoga teacher, and retreat facilitator dedicated to guiding others on a journey of self-discovery and connection with nature.
Born on the outskirts of Chicago, Zach’s lifelong fascination with the mysteries of life and deep reverence for the natural world led him to immerse himself in indigenous wisdom and global art movements. His creative pursuits and love for self-expression shaped his path, eventually bringing him to the forests of Northern California, where he lived for over a decade. With a passion for holistic living, Zach has worn many hats, from organic farmer and folk herbalist to musician and fine dining chef, always grounded in his role as an Earth steward.
A transformative journey to Peru in 2022 deepened Zach’s bond with the land and its rich traditions, culminating in his relocation to the Sacred Valley. Apprenticing under a revered medicine man, he embraced the ecological wonders and cultural wisdom of the region, integrating these teachings into his work.
Certified as a yoga teacher since 2021 and a Permaculture Design Certificate holder since 2015, Zach offers a nurturing space for growth and exploration, blending meditation, yoga, and herbal wisdom with Peru’s vibrant cultural heritage. Whether guiding retreats or sharing stories, Zach remains committed to fostering connections, celebrating the magic of existence, and helping others rediscover their authentic selves.
