Nuckols joins the company as it prepares for Paul Comiskey’s planned retirement. Cominskey formally made his retirement plans known to the board of directors in November 2016.

This transition will be completed prior to the end of the year.

Nuckols graduated from the University of Virginia in 1989 with a BS in electrical engineering. Prior to joining Dixie, he spent his entire career with DuPont Fibers, which became Invista. He served in various positions of increasing importance, most recently as senior director of mill sales and product strategy.
