Ryan Jones
Chief Revenue Officer
Ryan Jones has been with the company since 2002. During this time, he’s held a variety of different roles that progressed from leading the IT team, to becoming Chief Information Officer, and finally pivoting in 2020 to become Chief Revenue Officer. He hails from a rural area in west Texas called Klondike where he played 6-man football and learned the value of hard work on his family’s cotton farm. When he isn’t working, Ryan spends his time working on building his own house and also enjoys doing mission work with his church. A favorite trip of his was when they went to Ethiopia to build playgrounds for schools. He can often be found strumming his guitar, shooting his bow, or dripping his coffee.
Nick Phillips
Chief Customer Officer
Nick leads the organization in the customer program’s voice, end-to-end customer experience, and strategic partnership management. He sets the Benefits Technology department’s vision by fostering innovation and growth in an environment employees want to work in.
He began his journey with the organization in 1994, moving boxes in the Policy Issue team. Nick quickly became a go-to guy working with every team, department, and directly with executives. His can-do attitude led him to become a licensed broker and grew professionally as a key enroller. In 2005 he transitioned to the newly formed online benefits administration team. He found his passion on this team that combined innovation, technical knowledge, and insurance enrollment. He rose through the ranks from data analyst to EDI supervisor to Manager to Director to CCO.
Using his wide range of experience, he develops both customers and employees through mentoring, networking, and opening opportunities. Nick’s solution-based philosophy fosters an environment of automation and process innovation in an ever-evolving agile operation.
Nick lives a non-complacent lifestyle that pushes him to travel to the world, experience the arts, and enjoy learning new hobbies, crafts, and skills.
Paul Welp
Chief Technical Officer
Paul Welp started at allsynx in 2008, where he rose to be the Director of Systems Development, and in 2019 he became our Chief Technical Officer. Born in Carrollton, Paul is a Texas native. He attended UTD, where he graduated with a degree in computer science. He refers to his home as ‘zoo’ because he has dogs, cats, horses, and to top it all off, two children – but he loves them all. He is happily married and enjoys spending his free time with his family. A lover of puns, Paul’s jokes and sense of humor help inspire positivity – and sometimes groans – from his team members.
