Zakk started playing the guitar when he was 6 years old and began singing when he was 9. Even before he could play any songs he would try and write his own music

Being a career musician, Zakk has played in various projects. Most locally notable, Bad Habitz with his sister, Chloe. He formed Krestfall in late 2016 to cater to his heavier musical tastes.
