Ethan officially joined Mizell Honey, as our first full-time employee in April of 2024, after over a year working part-time. He was an ideal candidate for an employee because in addition to his tremendous work ethic and positive attitude, he was the newest addition to the family as Alex’s bother-in-law, Allen’s son-in-law. In his spare time, Ethan is a dedicated husband and fur-baby dad of three dogs. He and his wife, Sarah, can often be found enjoying the beaches of Saint Augustine, a place they consider to be one of their favorite vacation spots.

Ethan serves his community through his church, always willing to offer a charitable hand to those in need. He and Sarah are very involved with their youth program, helping coordinate and host events like Vacation Bible School.

As if working full time and church involvement isn’t impressive enough, Ethan is a recent college graduate with a degree in history. While he has toyed with the idea of pursuing a law degree or becoming a teacher, we are hopeful Ethan will stay with Mizell Honey and grow into a senior role as our company expands.
