Hello! I'm Tanner Savidge.
I am currently an entry-level Structural Packaging Designer in the Lehigh Valley, focused on growing my skills through valuable work experiences. I strive to create packaging solutions that satisfy the customer,production and pack-out teams, and the end user.
In my brief time in the packaging industry I have been able to work collaboratively with a sales team and customers from all branches of industry to create innovative packaging solutions. Many of these innovations come in the realm of retail ready packaging, I am thrilled to be working on projects that help to drive the next wave of CPG sales. My role has provided me with opportunities to work with high profile brands in the office supply, food, and tool industries. I also have had the opportunity to work with major retail chains including Costco and Walmart.
I went to Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University for my college education, majoring in Packaging Systems and Design and minoring in Wood Science and Forest Products. While at Virginia Tech, I involved myself heavily in extracurricular activities. I was a member of The Marching Virginians, Kappa Kappa Psi, and the IOPP Packaging Club. I held leadership positions in all of these organizations in hopes to advance my communication skills and personal leadership style.
My drive and determination comes from growing up on a family farm, and the values I learned continue to push me further today.
