Bio
Bronwyn Longchamp
Zach’s graphic design know-how mixed with his social media skills makes him a powerhouse for any organization trying to improve their social brand profile! In the almost 5 years that I managed Zach, I watched as he fine tuned his creative design skills to meet The Trust’s varying needs — from social, to print materials, to in-event display — he stepped up to the challenge of each and the brand needs were better served. Zach has great natural instincts and a can-do attitude that make him a great colleague and asset to the team. While his social and graphics work are his standouts, Zach also has varied digital skills, that make him a well-rounded team player for a digital department. Even in the most stressful of times, Zach approaches everything with an easygoing nature that makes working with him a breeze. I am thankful for all the ways he assisted our department and consider him a highly valued team member!

Zach made a large impact on the success of the Chicago Bulls Corporate Partnership Dept. during the 2014-2015 season. He was extremely organized and always completed projects in a timely manner. His positive attitude and ability to learn quickly made him a true asset to our team. Zach often went out of his way to assist colleagues on daily projects and also offered creative ideas during meetings. He will continue to grow his skill set and will be a valuable team member throughout his sports career.
