MIKA NEWTON
From the very first day I started working with Zack Teperman & ZTPR I realized I could trust him and his team with the most important thing… my entire career. It’s so rare that from the first meeting you understand and know that you can have this trust. He is always on top of communication with his clients, and I have never met anyone responding to emails so fast. He knows everything about the client and what’s going on in their lives/careers and never gets confused with all the information. He is the person whose professional opinion is very important to me in all the questions/areas regarding my career.
