Zayde received a Bachelors of Arts Degree in Sociology with honors at Western New Mexico University, and was inducted into the Western New Mexico University student Hall of Fame in 2015. During his time at Western New Mexico, Zayde played college football, and was the Senior Student-Athlete of the year in 2015.

Zayde is entering his second year at California Western School of Law, where he is an active member of both the Middle Eastern Law Student Association and the Entertainment and Sports Law Society. During his first semester in law school, Zayde earned the American Jurisprudence award in Property I for having the highest grade in the class.

Zayde is specifically interested in contract law and the legal aspects of copyright and trademark issues. Zayde is passionate to intern at New Media Rights so he can give legal assistants to artists, filmmakers, photographers, and entrepreneurs, because he comes from a family background of self-made entrepreneurs.

Outside of work and school, Zayde is an avid moviegoer, sports fanatic, and enjoys hiking throughout beautiful San Diego with his dogs.
