In 2000 Dallyn discovered his love of teaching after being asked to take over an intro to drawing class as Salt Lake Community College.

Currently Mr. Zundel is the graphic arts teacher at Wasatch High School in Heber City, Utah. He is also an adjunct professor for Utah Valley University and for BYU-Idaho.
Dallyn grew up on a potato farm in Southeastern Idaho where he and his father also trained racing quarter horses. The love of horses has never left him even though he is no longer around them nearly as much. He always said that if he wasn?t an artist, he would be racing horses. It was his only other interest in life. Luckily for him, his father still has a few that he races every summer. Painting horses is a way for Zundel to stay connected.
