Ryan Boyington

Ryan is a partner and has been with the company since 2014.  He previously led the SK Supplies Division as well as the company’s Performance Excellence strategy and now leads the operations groups across all divisions.  Ryan jokes that since he is part of a family company there is no option to ever leave, but he can’t imagine working anywhere else and has always been amazed at how many long tenured employees the company has.  There is no better proof for how great the SK team really is.  Ryan spends countless hours in the outdoors and claims he once willingly went ice fishing in Canada when it was 70 degrees below freezing.

Lincoln Dix

The Supplies Division makes a difference by helping clients do business better through streamlining vendors, reducing costs, removing barriers to efficiency, and providing a true one-stop solution for businesses.

Lincoln is passionate about his family, his community, a healthy work/life balance and collecting experiences and knowledge instead of things.  He has started a small business, met a personal goal of running ten 5Ks in a summer, finished a half marathon, and volunteers over 100 hours a year to causes that matter to him and his family.  He is the father of 5 children, one of 9 adopted siblings, a leader, board member, mentor, and voracious learner.

Robert Nost

Robert has been in the printing industry since 1980 and loves everything print. Coming onboard with Storey Kenworthy shortly after the purchase of Matt Parrott Printing, Robert felt Storey Kenworthy was a good place to utilize and share his print knowledge. Robert looks at print manufacturing as an art form that he’s passionate about.

Robert also enjoys growing his knowledge of promotional products and apparel in an ever-changing environment. The variety day to day keeps him engaged and enthusiastic about his job and he can’t wait for the next promo market trend or new printing process to bring to the table.

Ryan Sup

Ryan wanted to work for Storey Kenworthy because he understood SK was a well-respected, forward thinking, family-owned local company that cares about their employees.  Having been with the company for 18 years now, and this year having been promoted to a newly created Support Services Manager position for our supply division, SK has lived up to that expectation and are a great company to work for.  In Ryan’s spare time, he likes to cook and garden.
