Zachary Parlee, Reporter

Zachary Parlee is the son of Nicole and Brian Parlee and has a sister named Ashleigh. Zack is a fan of many sports but by far his favorite sport is basketball. His favorite team is his hometown Boston Celtics but he also likes football. He is a Denver Broncos fan but enjoys watching the New England Patriots too. His favorite color is red. There is no real reason why he likes it, he thinks it is just a very good color. He has always wanted to go to Canada because he thinks it is a very nice place to visit.
