My name is Zach Callender and I am a dedicated and accomplished individual with a strong background in both academics and athletics. A proud alumnus of Life Christian Academy, I excelled in sports, earning recognition on the TCAL All-District First Team twice and the All-District Second Team once. Demonstrating exceptional talent and commitment, I also garnered All-State First Team honors in 2002 and was named to the All-State Second Team in 2001. Continuing the pursuit of excellence at the University of St. Thomas, I thrived in the competitive intramural sports scene, becoming a two-time Intramural Champion. These experiences have shaped my team-oriented mindset, leadership skills, and dedication to achieving goals, qualities that are now brought to the professional realm.
