Ethan Whitesell

Ethan Whitesell brings to the Thomas Duke Company a deep background in relationship-driven business development. Before entering commercial real estate Ethan worked as a vice president for client services and business strategy for a medical services company. In that role he gave focused attention to building long-term, trusting relationships within the company and with clients. He learned how to listen well, ask the right questions, and navigate complex business dynamics—critical skills he now uses to advise clients on real estate decisions that align with their long-term goals. As a company executive who communicated across diverse industries, Ethan also learned that good business goes beyond successful transactions. It’s about building communities where businesses can thrive. Nowhere is that more true than in commercial real estate. Central to Ethan’s work to build thriving communities are the values of integrity, transparency, and stewardship. For him, that means doing what’s right even when it’s not easy, prioritizing the client’s long-term good over short-term gains. In the pressing demands of the marketplace that can be a challenge. But Ethan finds his values daily reinforced by his faith, his wife, and his five children who keep him grounded in what really matters.
