He also worked at NC State University before moving back to the area in 2015 to work at Appalachian State University. His work has focused on major gifts, annual giving, board development, and fundraising strategy.

A two-time graduate of Appalachian State, Ethan holds a M.A. In Higher Education Administration, a bachelor's degree in Communication Studies with minors in English and Political Science. He was a member of the Appalachian Ambassadors and the Cross Country and Track and Field teams.
