Sarah Sadrakula was recently named Executive Director of Main Street Washington. Sadrakula, a native of Hudson, Wisconsin became familiar with southeast Iowa while attending the University of Iowa for undergrad work. After leaving Iowa, she completed her Master’s degree at Boston University in the study of historic preservation.

Sadrakula says she was excited to find a job in southeast Iowa following graduation as she fell in love with the area living in Iowa City. Sadrakula has been on the job since Monday and says so far she is building relationships with people in the city of Washington and working to get familiar with different organizations and events. She has also focused on opportunities she sees for Washington moving forward, specifically store front utilization, history preservation and city events.
