His professional background spans twenty years in senior management and includes past leadership and sales operations consulting to Jergens. His sales experience encompasses government, SaaS, military, medical device, and senior leadership roles within global industrial manufacturing and distribution. 

“I have a tremendous amount of respect for what the Schron family has built in Jergens,” said Guice. “Having worked with Matt in the past, I am closely aligned with the core values of the company and our commitment to delivering world-class products and services for our customers.” 

Guice’s recent employment includes sales and senior management for Clean Air Dynamics LLC, with emphasis on government-funded municipalities and medical devices. He has previously held multiple leadership roles within Premier Farnell, focused on manufacturing, MRO, and industrial distribution. He holds a B.A. in Communications from The College of Wooster in Ohio, and an M.A. in Education from Kent State University.
