Zac Upchurch
Founder of ZUpchurch
Zac Upchurch is a business builder, writer, and avid thrill seeker. Each year, Zac completes one goal created by friends and family. The goals are intentionally set to expand horizons and push Zac outside his comfort zone. To date, Zac has run with the bulls in Arizona (twice), completed Tough Mudder (twice), and skydived.
Zac started his career in politics working as the speechwriter for the Arizona Attorney General. From there, he was recruited into political consulting, where he became an integral part of city, state, and Congressional campaigns. His work in politics resulted in an award from the State of Arizona for Outstanding Service to the State. With this success, Zac moved to Boston, Massachusetts in 2013 to see how his experiences in running successful campaigns translated to the private sector. There he successfully led strategy and growth for a global corporation.
With those successes, Zac moved to his childhood dream city of New York City where he is helping founders scale their businesses. On a day to day basis, Zac explores what makes people and companies successful, and is devoting his life to helping the two succeed together. Outside of work, Zac Upchurch spends time reading, running, and investing.
