Zidron was raised in Cincinnati, Ohio and attended Anderson High School while playing competitively for Cincinnati United Premier. Zidron went on to play varsity soccer at Denison University where he graduated in 2004 with a degree in biology, he returned the following year to obtain his teaching license.

Following his stint in the USL, Zidron accepted a job teaching science at Licking Valley High School.
