Zip's Bio

I am a big sports fan. I grew up playing almost every sport. Now however, I mostly confine myself to the big
three: tennis, golf, and ultimate frisbee. I went to school in Colorado where I played on my college tennis team and club frisbee team. I play golf for fun on the weekends. Other than sports, I enjoy writing and making short movies. I majored in English -- what I plan to do with that? I'll keep you posted.

If you enjoy some of the stuff I've written, you can also check out my personal blog at http://leah-umyeah.blogspot.com

  8. Zip,

    I think the edit guys pulled out that tag, last I checked it says Cassie Kolles is editing and to check back in 15 minutes, so in case I don't get to it in time, could you put that tag back again.

    Thanks and it is a lovely article. POTD stuff.

    Bests,
    Sarah

    Thanks,
    Sarah

  10. Nice work with the fist pumps article, pretty classic.

  11. Hi Leah,

    You probably won't believe this but I've been following your career at Colorado College for a couple of years. Why? Once again, you won't believe this but my daughter's name is Leah Zipperstein (told you you wouldn't believe it!!). We live in Redlands, CA (yep, you were here a couple of years ago for a tennis tournament. I found your name after your visit here otherwise we would have come to cheer you on). My daughter is going to be 15 years old on 11/22. We are originally from Chicago, Illinois. My father is Nathan, his father is Louis. I'm sure our family trees are connected somewhere. Anyway, my Leah plays soccer and basketball and currently attends Redlands East Valley High School. I like your short list but if I were picking between Jordan and Russell I would select Jerry West (hate the Bulls, REALLY hate the Celtics). My family and I hope your life is everything you dream it to be. Say Hi to the Cincinnati Zipperstein's from their long, lost cousins?? (maybe)

    Paul Zipperstein
    Redlands, CA
