I currently serve as Director, Payroll Service and Delivery - North America for Mars Veterinary Health and am passionate about elevating the payroll profession through education, innovation, and leadership. In addition to my professional role, I actively volunteer with PayrollOrg through several committees and task forces because I believe in giving back to the profession that has provided me with so many opportunities. Outside of work, I enjoy connecting with payroll professionals, mentoring emerging leaders, helping build strong payroll communities, and enjoying time with my family.   ***How long have you been involved with PAYO and Local Chapters?*** I've been actively involved with PayrollOrg since 2017 and have served in a variety of volunteer capacities over the years. My involvement has included task forces, committees, educational initiatives, and chapter leadership support. I'm fortunate, along with my teams, to have earned two payroll prisms awards, once in 2020 for management, and again in 2024 for overall best practices! I joined the Rainier Chapter in the spring of 2025 as the Webmaster and handling social media communications, and have enjoyed building relationships with payroll professionals throughout the region. Each volunteer experience has strengthened my commitment to supporting payroll practitioners and advancing our profession.    ***What goal would you like to achieve as a Regional Advisor?*** As a Regional Advisor, my primary goal is to help chapters thrive by providing support, sharing best practices, and fostering collaboration across the region. I want chapter leaders to feel empowered, connected, and equipped with the resources they need to engage their members and grow their organizations. I also hope to help identify and develop future volunteer leaders who will continue strengthening PayrollOrg and our local chapters for years to come.   ***![](https://blogs.payroll.org/hs-fs/hubfs/26%20REGION%204-04-jpg.jpeg?width=396&height=396&name=26%20REGION%204-04-jpg.jpeg) What is the best advice you would like to give to the chapters in your region?*** Focus on creating value and meaningful connections for your members. Strong chapters are built on relationships, engagement, and a willingness to adapt to the needs of their membership. Don't be afraid to try new ideas, collaborate with neighboring chapters, and leverage the many resources available through PayrollOrg. Most importantly, remember that every volunteer contribution matters. Even small efforts can have a significant impact on member engagement and chapter success.   *How do you use social media to help promote and market the chapters in your region? What platforms do you use? What is your handle/profile name?* LinkedIn is my primary social media platform for promoting payroll-related events, chapter activities, industry news, and professional development opportunities. I use my LinkedIn profile, sarah-chasney-cpp-5552a630 to share chapter accomplishments, recognize volunteer leaders, and encourage participation in PayrollOrg and local chapter events. Social media provides an excellent opportunity to expand our reach, showcase the value of membership, and connect with both current and future payroll professionals.   ***How do you plan to interact with chapters in your region?*** I plan to be an accessible and supportive resource for chapter leaders through regular communication, participation in chapter events, leadership meetings, and one-on-one conversations. My goal is to build strong relationships with  chapters so I can better understand their unique opportunities and challenges. I also hope to facilitate collaboration among chapters, encourage the sharing of ideas and best practices, and celebrate the successes and achievements of our volunteers throughout Region 4.    **Share below any greetings or questions you may have for Sarah!**   **To contact Sarah directly, you may find her most up to date contact information on the** [**Region 4 webpage**](https://ebiz.payroll.org/ebusiness/chapters/findachapter/chaptersbyregion.aspx?RegionID=7)**.** Sarah's current contact information as of 11/13/26 is: Phone: +1(805) 701-7373 [sarah.chasney@banfield.com](mailto:sarah.chasney@banfield.com)    Topics: [Board of Advisors](https://blogs.payroll.org/chapter-leaders/topic/board-of-advisors) **Topics:** [Board of Advisors](https://blogs.payroll.org/chapter-leaders/topic/board-of-advisors)   ### Subscribe ### Search ### Categories - [Chapter Guidance & Resources (103)](https://blogs.payroll.org/chapter-leaders/topic/chapter-guidance-resources) - [Chapter Contests (62)](https://blogs.payroll.org/chapter-leaders/topic/chapter-contests) - [Board of Advisors (49)](https://blogs.payroll.org/chapter-leaders/topic/board-of-advisors) - [Payroll Congress (36)](https://blogs.payroll.org/chapter-leaders/topic/payroll-congress) - [Chapter Events (31)](https://blogs.payroll.org/chapter-leaders/topic/chapter-events) ![](https://blogs.payroll.org/hs-fs/hubfs/chapter-blog-images/clsad.jpg?width=160&name=clsad.jpg) ![](https://blogs.payroll.org/hs-fs/hubfs/chapter-blog-images/gccad.jpg?width=150&name=gccad.jpg) ### Recent Posts ![payroll-logo-white](https://blogs.payroll.org/hs-fs/hubfs/payroll-logo-white.png?width=200&name=payroll-logo-white.png "payroll-logo-white") [Privacy Policy](http://www.americanpayroll.org/privacy/)     |     Acceptable Use ©[PayrollOrg](http://payroll.org) [![soc-fb](https://blogs.payroll.org/hubfs/ct-23-assets/footer-icon_fb.svg "soc-fb")](https://www.facebook.com/PayrollOrg) [![soc-in](https://blogs.payroll.org/hubfs/ct-23-assets/footer-icon_li.svg "soc-in")](https://www.linkedin.com/company/payroll-org/mycompany/) [![Twitter-X-White-Logo-PNG](https://blogs.payroll.org/hs-fs/hubfs/Twitter-X-White-Logo-PNG.png?width=20&height=19&name=Twitter-X-White-Logo-PNG.png)](https://twitter.com/PayNews)
