Our Team
Patrick Sanders
Patrick Sanders, born and raised in East Texas, discovered his passion for event planning right out of school. When his band needed venues to play, he stepped up and made it happen. Years later, he found his love for selling clothes, but with the challenges of 2020, opportunities became limited. This led to the creation of Hangin' N Slangin', which started as a way for him and his friends to sell their goods and has since grown into the vibrant community it is today.
Sam Heart
Sam, raised in Ashland, Oregon, brings her creative flair to Hangin' N Slangin', handling everything from event activities to day-of communications. When she's not managing markets or taking care of admin tasks, she's busy with Salt & Pepper Apparels alongside Patrick, keeping things fresh and stylish on both fronts. In her downtime, you can find her enjoying "granny hobbies" like knitting and gardening.
