Curtis Packaging welcomes two new executives—Mike Gorman and Brian von Bargen.

Mike Gorman has joined Curtis Packaging as Vice President of Sales and Business Development.

This change comes following his 17 years at Packaging Trends, Inc. Gorman says “he is eager to bring his expertise in packaging to the table and contribute to the continued success and growth of Curtis Packaging.” He adds, “It is an absolute honor to align myself with a company led by Donald Droppo, Jr. that invests in innovation and prioritizes its people to foster growth and a collaborative culture to best service their customer base.” Environmental responsibility is also a continued focus, as Curtis became the first carbon-neutral packaging company in North America.

Brian von Bargen has joined the Curtis Packaging family as Sales Executive.

He brings extensive industry experience from his time at Uline, where he successfully managed and expanded client accounts and was recognized multiple times as Sales Rep of the Month.

Beyond his professional success, von Bargen has a unique and impressive background: He played Division 1 lacrosse at Hofstra University and continued his lacrosse career professionally with teams in Denver and New York.
