Headshot of Zak Philbrook

Hey, my name is Zak Philbrook and I am currently finishing up my Associates Degree in Liberal Arts with a Certificate in Digital Marketing through Anoka-Ramsey Community College. Furthermore, I will receive both my degree and certificate in July 2025! I recently just got accepted into the Disney College Program, which I will be starting on Sept 8th. I am super excited for this new journey and to experience living in Florida and working for Disney!

Here are some of my interests and hobbies that I think make me who I am! First off, I am currently 19 years old and still live at home with my parents, unfortunately. Recently my brother and our buddies started a DnD campaign, which I was quite unsure of at first, but I’ve really enjoyed it! I am really into music and movies and really anything that deals with creativity and art. My favorite artists currently would be, Frank Ocean, Clairo, Lorde, Kendrick Lamar, and Bon Iver. And my favorite movies would be, Waves, Fight Club, Past Lives, and Everything Everywhere All At Once. I have been an advanced scuba certified diver for almost 4 years now and have been on 100+ dives! I absolutely love scuba diving and my favorite aquatic life to see while diving would be, manta rays, clown fish, whale sharks, nurse sharks, and seahorses.
