Zachary Long
Technical Business Analyst in higher education. NYU Stern M.S. in Analytics & AI. I build clarity with data by day and explore story worlds by night.
Lore + Logic
I think in systems and care about the humans inside them. By day, I help institutions make faster, better decisions with analytics that leaders actually use. After hours, I’m drawn to books and films with scale, atmosphere, and strong worldbuilding — Dune, Malazan, Lord of the Rings — the kind of stories that build entire civilizations and ask what it means to live in them.
This site exists because I don’t think professional and personal have to live in separate boxes. The same curiosity that drives my analytics work drives my reading list and film diary. If you’re here from LinkedIn, welcome — check the Workshop. If you’re here for book reviews, welcome — check the Stacks. Either way, you’re seeing the full picture.
