The short version.
I was born Zachary John-Deane Roesler on March 15, 1990 in Perth, Western Australia. My father was an actor just breaking into the business. My mother was a model and gym instructor. Acting was in the house before I could walk.
I got my first taste on stage at nine years old in a school production of Thor, then again as Arjun in the Mahabharata. By the time I moved to Sydney at 11, I knew I wanted to perform. School was never my thing. The classroom held me back. The stage did not.
At 18 I jumped in and never looked back. I trained, auditioned, got knocked down, got back up, and started landing work. Film, television, commercials, presenting. I spent time in Los Angeles, came back to Australia, and kept building.
In 2019 I became a professional presenter for Channel 75, a role I held through 2020. Since then I have been building my business ventures and podcast while keeping the creative fire alive. Now I am ready to go back to what started it all.
