zzCollective, Inc. was co-founded in 2010 by by Nick Squires and Carlos Ramirez; we are both physicists by education and software engineers by trade. We are two guys with too many ideas; we’ve finally realized that we need to focus our energy on strengths by spreading our philosophy via the vehicle that is zzCollective, Inc.

Nick Squires, aka “ArbitraryY”, suffers from knowledge ADD. When he is not engineering software at his full time Aerospace gig, you can find him teaching Mathematics at a top notch Fashion Institution, making music, reading tech/science/math/business/entrepreneur materials, trail running, hiking, cycling, designing, or just, imagining.

Carlos Ramirez, aka “TopQuark”, is a technically focused individual that is always broadening and sharpening his knowledge and skills in the latest web and information technologies for developing applications that can be integrated into daily life and the workplace. When he’s not pounding on the keyboard, he is reading, lounging, and spending time with his kids.
