Caught Our Eye

Former Hill LD earns position at UMich

Posted by Heavyn Lester on May 16, 2024

With more than five years of experience on the Hill, Zach Weber is returning to his alma mater, the University of Michigan, as federal relations director.

Weber was most recently deputy director of federal affairs to Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D). Prior to joining Whitmer's office, Weber was legislative director to former Rep. Brenda Lawrence (D-Mich.).

Weber graduated from the University of Michigan in 2014 with a bachelor's in international studies and Spanish.

The university lobbies on a range of issues, including health, veterans and budget/appropriations issues.

Clarification: Monday's Caught Our Eye reported that Steve Dwyer, senior director of innovation for the Office of the Chief Administrative Officer, was invited to Microsoft's Spring Congressional Staff Delegation Trip. A representative for the Office of the Chief Administrative Officer informed LegiStorm that Dwyer did not attend this event.
