About the Owners

Guy

Skinner

Previously living in Alpharetta, GA, and now residing in Canton, GA for over three decades, I've lived a life intertwined with family and professional success. Married to Kelly Skinner, known for her tenure and happy demeanor on the RISPA staff, we raised three daughters - Lauren, Macie, and Lexi.

My career spanned 39 years in the corporate realm with AT&T, IBM, and Kyndryl (a spinoff business from IBM), culminating in the role of Vice President of Business Development. Overseeing 1,500 employees across the U.S. and six other countries, I managed Information Technology Outsourcing contracts generating $350 million annually. I retired from my corporate career in early 2023.

Seventeen years as a member of the RISPA community, our commitment deepened as our daughters, Macie and Lexi, returned to RISPA as teachers after college. Inspired by our family's RISPA journey, Kelly and I assumed ownership of the business from our dear friends (Danny & Georgina Louchiey) upon their retirement. Our decision to take over the business was driven by our passion to sustain this beloved institution's legacy of enriching lives. Excited for RISPA's future, we eagerly anticipate its continued positive impact on our community. We are committed to fostering an environment of respect for individuals, love for the performing arts, and fun experiences for our students, parents, and staff.
