"What started as a small venture has grown into Knox Pest Control, a regional company with 18 offices across the Southeast, serving more than 90,000 customers and employing over 225 team members. Sean's journey began early, working alongside his father and brother when the family business was revived in 1995. From the start, he saw leadership as more than running a company. "It was about protecting families, caring for communities, and standing behind what we promised," he recalls."
"He earned his BBA from Georgia Southern University in 2000, later completing an MBA at Baylor University in 2020. He also studied public policy at Regent University, where the mission of "Christian Leadership to Change the World" influenced his philosophy of servant leadership—leading with humility, integrity, and a focus on people. Under his guidance, Knox Pest Control has expanded steadily while maintaining its core values. He credits growth to investing in staff, prioritising relationships, and building trust with customers."
