Hello all, my name is Zachary Beard (obviously) and I write for Baltimore Beat Down. I first started writing here when I was 13 and haven't looked back since. My dream is to eventually be regarded as one of the most respected sports writers around and make a name for myself in journalism. While I am still young, I try to compensate for my age by putting all of my effort into each and every article. I have the best readers in the world, and I thank all of my loyal supporters who have been with me since the first day. I encourage criticism, so if there's ever anything you think I can do better to improve my skills as a writer please don't be afraid to send me an e-mail giving me a piece of your mind!
