Viva Las Vegas
After a month of job searching, soul searching, and location scouting, my wife and I have decided to head to Las Vegas. I’ve accepted a job at the Las Vegas Sun to help lead their multimedia team. The paper is in a unique situation that allows them to focus on more indepth storytelling and reporting. In the next couple months a major website overhaul will go live and from what I’ve seen of the prototypes, it’s incredible. I can’t believe we’re moving to the middle of the desert but it will be exciting to live in a different ecosystem.

This blog/website will not go away. I will always have personal projects etc, and I have a lot to show this summer before my new job starts also.

Congratulations, Zach. We will all miss you here in the city but I know you’ll keep doing good things out in Vegas. If you are ever at a casino…put 20 dollars on “black 10″ on the roulette wheel for me. Keep in touch.

You’re right, Zach, it is a different ecosystem here (meteorologically, journalistically…) We’re excited to have you on the team.
