"I have had the pleasure of teaching and working with Zad over the past year and his dedication to audio quality is exceptional. His work ethic is something of a dream for a lecturer and many should follow his excellent example. He has learned much over the last year and has pushed himself when appropriate to do so. When he is struggling he always asks for help and when he knows the content he is on hand to help others. His understanding of various audio disciplines is extensive and is getting greater by the day."

He comes from a distinguished artistic family and was raised in an environment immersed in music and appreciative of creativity, which helped shape and refine his talent from an early age.
