Abrahamson brings 23 years of experience in management, sales, marketing, and engineering to his new position, including more than 15 years working with customers in Europe and Asia. Prior to joining MGS Machine, Mr. Abrahamson spent almost nine years as the Director of Sales and Vice President of Sales and Marketing at Aero Systems Engineering in St. Paul, MN, where he led the sales and strategic planning processes and managed three international sales offices.

He also developed market strategies and tactics while serving as an Aircraft Market Manager for Remmele Engineering in Minneapolis and oversaw all aspects of account management at L-3 Communications Aviation Recorders in Sarasota, Florida. In his spare time, Mr. Abrahamson volunteers as the Director of Girls Competitive Soccer (Board of Directors) and as a youth soccer coach for Cottage Grove United Youth Soccer.

Pangier joined MGS in 2007 as a Project Manager in the company's Secondary Packaging group. Among his notable projects, he managed the development of the TLC Top Load Cartoner in 2009. A year later, he was named Senior Project Manager, where he supervised the MGS's team of Project Managers and led the company's most critical projects.

Pangier has a Bachelor of Arts in Organizational Management and Communications from Concordia College and is certified as a Project Management Professional by the Project Management Institute.
