Meet Zachary Peters: serial degree collector, tech whisperer, and your not-so-average workshop warrior. Armed with a mountain of degrees (and an Everest-sized pile of student debt to match), Zachary has journeyed from academia to real-world application, proving that the classroom is everywhere, and student loans are forever. When he’s not dropping knowledge at conferences, you might find him in his woodshop, turning planks into masterpieces, in the kitchen, experimenting with flavors, or casually sipping on a Miller Lite—because sometimes the best beer is the one that’s right in your hand.
