He also freelances for the Associated Press and, prior to his position at the Journal, he was the outdoors editor and sports writer for the Grant Pass Daily Courier, and has written and reported for the Eugene Register-Guard and The Oregonian. A native of Minnesota, Zach's college studies included Environmental Studies and his first reporting job out of college was in Polson, Montana, where he began to hone his outdoor journalism skills.
