Sara Kruszka is a community engagement coordinator, bookkeeper, and web designer for a nonprofit dedicated to improving literacy and building book culture in the Upper Cumberland. Before that, she worked at the City of Cookeville as a customer service clerk and support services technician for the city-owned utilities.

She is a 2009 graduate from Tennessee Tech University with a degree in political science. She currently sits on the executive committee for the Putnam County Democratic Party, and is a member of the Democratic Rural Caucus.

She is running for the Democratic State Executive Committee because she wants the party to be stronger, and saw a disconnect between the local county parties and the state. She is committed to working tirelessly to build the party, get out the vote, and help recruit and elect Democratic candidates at every level of government. She believes that change starts at the grassroots level, and that the state party and executive committee members need to provide resources, training, and support.
