Hello! My name is Zachary Rupp, While I may be young, I have many interests/experiences that would be considered unorthodox for someone my age. One such interest is financial advisement. My father has sense a young age taught me the ropes of stock investing, and I have used his advice to make excellent returns, easily beating the market each year sense opening my brokerage. As a result, I am commonly called upon by my peers for financial advisement. Another area that I have experience in is firearms. I have, after many years, learned how to take apart, modify and maintain a number of different kinds of weapons systems. While I wouldn't go so far as to say I am a gunsmith, I definitely know my way around one. Along with this, I commonly assist my father in his own firearms business (he is a licensed 07 manufacturer, along with a 02 SOT). My role has been keeping up to date with ATF laws and regulations, while also advising on possible business ventures. I stay informed on almost all of the newest advancements in the industry, and commonly give advice to friends on firearms. One last area that I have knowledge in is Entrepreneurship. Among other things, I have attended conferences (one of which was at Yale) and learned a great deal about what it takes to establish and run a business. In fact, after college I have already been offered a number of manager level or higher positions at friends and family businesses, simply due to the fact that they trust my intuition and knowledge in the area.
