All posts by Simon Zachary, SJ
Simon entered the Jesuits in 2013. Before entering the Jesuits, he worked in the digital advertising industry (until he realized msn.com was not nearly as hip as The Jesuit Post). As a Jesuit, he studied international political economy at Fordham University in NYC. Originally from the Glendale suburb of Phoenix, Arizona, Simon loves anything related to warm weather. When not writing, he can be found obsessively tending to the desert succulent plants in his room, lighting his beach scented candle to meditate, or whipping up some tabbouleh with fresh summery vegetables, herbs and spices.
