Once upon a Zombie Apocalypse…
No wait — *looks out window* — not quite yet!
So hey, I know this is crazy, but let’s just pretend for a moment that you have absolutely no idea who I am…HA! What a world that would be, right?
Ok, seriously — you really don’t have any idea who I am, do you? Well then, today is your lucky day, my friend, because I’m practically an expert on myself – and I’m here to help!
My name is Zero Dean!
There’s actually an “about me” page somewhere around here, but I forget where I put it, so I’ll take this moment to tell you a couple things about me (and if you really want to know more, you can try to find that page).
The first thing you might have noticed is that I have a number for a name. Yes, it’s true.
And yes, I am a superhero. Thanks for asking.
What I Do:
I inspire people to live more thoughtful lives, see the beauty that surrounds them, and motivate them to push themselves beyond their comfort zones & self-limiting beliefs. I do this through the unique expression of a combination of talents that include writing, photography, visual art, a pinch of charm and — when all else fails — cute animal photos.
6 Reasons Why You Might Be Here:
And some people like them! Woohoo!
My work is sprinkled through my web pages (most notably in the header at the top), but if you’d like to see more of it, go to Zero Dean Photography!
(Don’t worry, it’s pretty seamless and easy to get back here.)
And some people read it!
Sometimes it’s sad, but not usually. Sometimes it’s funny (seriously, I’m wicked hilarious). Sometimes what I write inspires people (Heck, I feel inspired just thinking about it!). And sometimes what I write makes people scratch their heads and go “Hmmmm.”
Yup, I spent nearly 2 years criss-crossing the USA on an epic road trip (we’re talking over 50,000 miles!) letting people tell me where to go and what to do and meeting people like Mark Zuckerberg and Jamie Hyneman, and doing lots of cool stuff.

You saw “Zero Dean” on an image and thought, “Who is that!?”
It’s crazy, but images with my name on them have been viewed a ridiculous number times on the internet! What images? Well, these from my blog and these on Flickr and these on Pinterest.
It was an excuse to deliberately push myself beyond my comfort zone for an extended period of time — and then learn from and write about the experience.

Man, that was awesome. But then I went and signed a piece of paper that said I wouldn’t talk about it until 2025. That stinks, right? Or wait — maybe that was a dream. 0_o
There is the distinct possibility that you have noooo idea why you’re here! That’s fine, too! We can still be friends.
And no matter why you’re here: Thanks for stopping by! Don’t hesitate to drop me a line here or on facebook if you feel like getting in touch!
I make videos!
For example, here’s a video featuring my photos.
One day I’m thinking about making a video featuring my photos that features a video that features my photos… whoaaaa. That’s so meta!
(You’re scratching your head over that now, aren’t you? See, I told you that happens!)
Oh yeah — and here’s a video of some of the places ZDXP has taken me…
I made some other videos, but they are over here.
I have nothing more to say on this page! EXCEPT: I like the way you read!
Ok — STOP HERE! You can’t go down any farther! You’ll fall off my web page!
