🇫🇷 Proud to Pursue La French Tech San Francisco
I'm actively working toward joining La French Tech San Francisco, and I'm especially excited about the La French Tech NOVA program, which supports high-potential entrepreneurs from under-represented and minority backgrounds — entrepreneurs like myself — with mentoring, investor connections, and access to the broader French Tech network. Fingers crossed!

Coffee with Zack ☕ — Vendredi 7 Août 2026
What's up, everybody! It's Friday (Vendredi) August (Août) 7, 2026. TGIF! Today we celebrate the world of Videogames. There's obviously big excitement given the new release of that Marvel fighting game — I'm sure everyone at EVO is super-excited.
I haven't picked up Halo yet. I hope to do so whenever I can afford to, but I also need Pragmata, and James Bond: First Light 007. Doing my best, but as I've previously mentioned, my startup is “bootstrapped” — meaning no outside venture capitalists nor angel investors. All the funding is either mostly from myself or my father, when he gives me a $20 bill here and there. It's been very tough.
Anyway, I plan a massive livestream of Cyberpunk 2077 in Japanese (with English subtitles) and The Crew: Motorfest — maybe other games as well. Of course, I livestream Death Stranding 2: On The Beach sporadically.
🎮 Gear I Use — Razer
