Life and career
Sajak grew up in the Severna Park, Maryland, area. She began playing the guitar at age 12. In 2011, she released her first single, "First Kiss", an upbeat country pop song. The music video for "First Kiss" was directed by CMT Music Award-winning director Trey Fanjoy in Nashville, Tennessee. Sajak's video was featured on the January 3, 2012, episode of Wheel of Fortune as a tribute to her 17th birthday. In 2013, Sajak recorded a song in Nashville called "Live Out Loud" to honor Muriel Walters, a teenage girl in Maryland who was battling cancer. Soon afterward, one of her songs was featured in the season finale of Sweet Home Alabama.

In 2013 she began her freshman year at Princeton University. She also did a fashion shoot for Teen Vogue.

For the week of January 6–10, 2020, Sajak took over for Vanna White as the letter-turner while her father was recovering from surgery, and White herself was hosting Wheel in his place.

For the 2021–2022 season, Sajak joined Wheel as a social correspondent.
