Zack Collie

At just 15 years old, Zack Collie’s life changed forever after a spinal cord injury left him a C4 quadriplegic. But his story didn’t stop there—it was just the beginning of a powerful journey of resilience, purpose, and faith. Today, Zack is an Associate Marriage & Family Therapist in Yorba Linda, CA, providing counseling both in-person and online. He’s also the voice behind Quadlife with Zack on YouTube, where he shares real, motivational insights into life with a spinal cord injury. Zack’s journey has taken him far beyond limitations—earning his bachelor’s and master’s degrees, building a career in counseling, becoming a husband and a father, and even pushing boundaries through adaptive adventures like skydiving, scuba diving, and target shooting with adaptive equipment.
