Payton Stang
Events & Marketing Manager
Payton@TigardChamber.org

A born-and-raised Oregonian, Payton Stang brings a passion for community engagement, creativity, and connection to her role as Events & Marketing Manager for the Tigard Area Chamber of Commerce.

With several years of experience in local government, including her most recent role just down the street with the City of Tigard’s Public Works Department, Payton understands the importance of building strong communities and meaningful relationships. She earned her Bachelor of Science in Public Health from the University of Portland. Go Pilots!

At the Chamber, Payton combines her love for community with her creative talents to plan and execute engaging events, develop marketing initiatives, and showcase the incredible businesses and people that make Tigard special. From signature celebrations and networking opportunities to member promotions and digital storytelling, she plays an important role in bringing the Chamber’s mission to life: building and connecting businesses, growing leaders, and shaping our community.

Outside of work, Payton can usually be found baking something sweet, spending time with her 11-year-old Golden Retriever, Andy, attending concerts (she’s a proud Swiftie!), or watching rerun after rerun of what she considers the greatest TV show ever created: The Office.

She also loves exploring her beautiful home state, with Sunriver and Cannon Beach holding a special place in her heart as childhood favorites. When she’s not adventuring around Oregon, she’s traveling somewhere new or staying perhaps a little too up to date on all things pop culture.
