Jackson Walker partner Zach Zurek has been selected as a member of the 50th Class of Leadership San Antonio (LSA).
Established in 1975 by the San Antonio Chamber of Commerce and later joined by the San Antonio Hispanic Chamber, LSA has graduated nearly 2,000 civic-minded leaders in Bexar County and the surrounding areas. For the 50th anniversary, the program’s theme is “Where Legacy Meets Leadership,” and alumni from the past 50 years will engage with this year’s participants.
The LSA 50 Welcome Reception was held on Monday, December 8, 2025, at The Alamo’s Ralston Family Collections Center. The program will continue into the new year as the 70-member class attends monthly meetings with Chamber board members, special events, and Council and Committee meetings to discover the impact of participating in politics, business, and philanthropy.
“It’s an honor to be chosen for the 50th Class of Leadership San Antonio, and the historic nature of this year only adds to the excitement,” Zach noted regarding his selection to LSA. “I look forward to the opportunity to help better the community and collaborate with fellow members.”
Julia Mann, managing partner of Jackson Walker’s San Antonio office, stated: “We are thrilled that Zach has been chosen for Leadership San Antonio, and all of us at Jackson Walker are excited to see what he is able to accomplish. Zach is extremely well-deserving of this honor, and I know he will represent the firm well.”
