About Zach Hofer-Shall

Welcome to the online home of Zachariah N. Hofer-Shall

First off all, Zach apologizes for writing this in the first person, but because he has done such a poor job of personal branding, it is necessary for Zachariah Nathaniel Hofer-Shall to use his name many times throughout this site to make the Google gods happy. He’s really sorry for how annoying this must read.

Now, let’s get on to a little “get me off the hook liability disclaimer”: This blog is independent to me and is not affiliated with my employer… unless you find me really smart and the writing inspires you to want to do business with me- in which case the thoughts and opinions are also part of my company… but otherwise I take sole responsibility for anything I write here.

Now onto the bio: Zach was born in Michigan and has spent time living the following places: Vermont, where he finished high school; Schenectady, NY to attend Union College (studied Computer Engineering and English, but graduated with a BS in Psychology. And no, the BS doesn’t stand for that), moved to Connecticut for a year, before settling in the quaint Beacon Hill neighborhood of Boston, MA.

Currently Zach works as a Social Media Consultant with the tech PR/Marketing/Social Media firm, Prompt Communications. He helps companies understand and utilize social media to better understand, monitor, and engage with their customers. Through the services offered by Prompt, Zach creates, tracks, ranks, and analyzes online conversations for companies to stay on top of their image. Zach Hofer-Shall also contributes to the company Tech Blog.

The early stages of Mr. Hofer-Shall’s career include web development and design, blogging, video production, college recruiting, and IT headhunting, as well as golf ball collecting and bread-basket packaging.

Zach enjoys watching and playing golf and soccer; eating chicken fingers and popcorn; drinking rye and microbrewed beers; playing scrabble, boggle, and trivial pursuit; and watching animal documentaries or British TV shows.
