MATTHEW BARAN
From 2003-2016 I worked for EXTOL International, my family's business. My career progression began as a Documentation Specialist. From there I moved on to Support Engineer, Managed Services Technician, and Director of Managed Services. In 2012 I became the Chief Operating Officer where I managed the company’s Sales, Product Development, and Services departments.
I earned my B.S. in Business Administration, Finance, and Communication from Bryant College (now Bryant University) in 2003, and a Certificate of Achievement for Corporate Leadership from Dale Carnegie & Associates in 2008
New Ringgold, Pennsylvania, is home base where my wife and I run our family farm, and our children play and learn valuable life lessons.
I enjoy participating in a number of community activities, including:
- Board Member, Schuylkill County Municipal Authority
- Board Member, Schuylkil Economic Development Corporation
