Hi, I'm Zach! I'm a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER® and the founder of ZZ Planning. Before becoming a financial planner, I was a litigator. I graduated from law school with a ton of debt, clerked, and worked in New York for two biglaw firms for more than a decade. I know what it's like to rush to meet a midnight filing deadline, or to be on call on vacation. But I also know how to be smart with money, and create a plan that will allow you to reach your goals. Now that I've left the law, I'm here to share my experience. Everything you are going through, or are going to go through, I've gone through it too. I can help.​
