Her committee work extends into the civic side of the legal system. Zupp serves at the nominating commission for Iowa Judicial District 3B, a role that includes evaluation of judicial candidates and participation in the choice procedure for the district. Those duties mirror an extended-time period engagement with the profession past court representation.
Local community service figures in her biography as well. Zupp has been at the board of the Norelius Community Library in Denison, Iowa since 2010 and has served as its president. That continuous involvement in a small-town organization speaks to sustained ties within the network the place she practices.

She has taken on organizational duties, from symposium leadership to board governance, that influence practice requirements throughout the state.
In addition to committee and board duties, Zupp’s day-to-day regulation practice remains centered in Iowa. She handles matters springing up under the state’s workers’ compensation device and participates in the professional networks that shape those rules and procedures.
