In 1995 he founded ZMI Real Estate with Mr. Zotovich and Bruce Ibbetson. Over a 12-year period, ZMI Real Estate invested in several prominent office buildings and industrial parks. At the height of the recent real estate market, ZMI sold its real estate holdings.

Mr. Meyer married his high school sweetheart Elaine “Hoppy” Meyer in the summer of 1983. Mr. and Mrs. Meyer have 3 sons, Christopher, Brent and Jamie. When their youngest son Jamie was 16 months old, he was diagnosed with Nephrotic Syndrome, an immune system disease that attacked his kidneys. Over a fifteen-year period, Jamie received excellent treatment from Children’s Hospital of Orange County (CHOC). Jamie is now a very healthy 24 year old. They were very fortunate to have a world class children’s hospital in their community.
