AICC Celebrates 25-Year Career Of Taryn Pyle
AICC has announced the retirement of Taryn Pyle, Director of Training, Education, and Professional Development, ef- fective June 30, following 25 years of dedicated service to the Association and the independent packaging industry. Throughout her tenure, Taryn played a transforma- tive role in advancing AICC’s mission through education, leadership development, member engagement, and pro- fessional growth initiatives. Her commitment to creat- ing meaningful learning opportunities helped shape the careers of countless individuals across the independent packaging community while strengthening the Associa- tion’s educational offerings and industry impact. Over the course of her career, Taryn contributed to
nearly every corner of the Association. She helped revital- ize AICC’s publications, expanded member engagement efforts, championed leadership development programs, and was instrumental in the growth of Packaging Univer- sity, which now provides AICC members with extensive access to free online education and training resources.
Her work reflected a steadfast belief that investing in people is one of the most powerful ways to strengthen independent businesses and the industry overall. In a recent message to members re- flecting on her career, she expressed deep gratitude for the relationships and shared experiences that defined her time with AICC. She credited the Association’s mem- bers for helping shape her understanding of the industry and for creating a culture built on generosity, mentorship, and a will- ingness to share knowledge. “Taryn’s influence in all AICC offerings, most recently Education programming, is one reason that there are so many bene- fits to membership today.” said AICC Pres- ident Mike D’Angelo. “Her joy in the way she interacts with people will be a fond memory for so many. We’ll miss Taryn as she tackles her next adventures.” Taryn’s influence can be seen in the generations of industry professionals who benefited from her guidance, educational programming, and unwavering support. Whether developing leadership pathways, creating training opportunities, or connect- ing members with valuable resources, she consistently worked to ensure that indi- viduals and companies had the tools they needed to succeed. Taryn will be succeeded by Rebecca Rendon. Rebecca joined AICC in October 2024 as Senior Manager of Education and Training. As she begins her next chapter, AICC thanks Taryn for the countless ways she has strengthened its community and helped shape the future of the indepen- dent packaging industry.
