grew up in Mission Hill and attended Roxbury Preparatory Charter School prior to his time at Nobles. During his four years at Nobles, Zach was known as a fun-loving member of his class. Always wearing a big smile, he brought joy to those around him. Zach was a proud member of the Nobles football team, a team that won two ISL Championships during his tenure. He was known as a total team guy who loved being around his teammates and coaches. He was, in his coaches’ eyes, the perfect embodiment of Bill Belichick’s mantra of “do your job.” Always happy and upbeat, Zach was far more interested in talking about a teammate or friend than he was himself. It was those traits that made Zach such an outstanding teammate, friend and member of the Nobles community. Following Nobles, Zach attended Roanoke College. He was a member of the Pi Lamb Brotherhood. He majored in business administration. In 2014, Zach moved to New York City to take an advertising job with Batten, Barton, Durstine & Osborn. An avid New England Patriots fan, Zach could often be found in front of the TV every Sunday afternoon, chanting “In Bill We Trust,” even while living in the depths of the Evil Empire. Zach is survived by his parents, Michael Allen and Karen Hollman-Allen ’77; his siblings, Tayjsa, Jared ’05 and Lindsey ’08; his grandmother Frances Reather Hollman; his nephew Jace Booth, and his niece Landy Rivera.
