He received his undergraduate degree in Management Information Systems (MIS) at the University of Oklahoma and spent several years working as a technical resource at a software company that served banks and other financial institutions. Zac counsels companies on a number of legal issues relating to intellectual property, technology and data privacy.

He has also assisted clients with software contracts, including software as a service (SaaS) agreements and contracts to develop new software applications.

He also helps his clients protect their intellectual property by identifying relevant assets and then executing a strategy to protect those assets. He has filed a large number of trademark applications with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) and has represented clients in trademark opposition proceedings brought by competitors before the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board (TTAB). In addition, Zac has worked with clients to seize internet domain addresses registered by competitors in bad faith pursuant to the Uniform Domain Name Registration Policy (UDRP) established by the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN).

He has also assisted companies in responding to data breach incidents, and has represented clients involved in regulatory actions by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) related to data security and privacy, such as FTC enforcement actions under the United States Privacy Shield program.
