 Meet the Team



Jon Shell
Realtor®

Jon is a Pensacola native with a deep passion for real estate and a commitment to providing unparalleled service and satisfaction to his clients. He holds degrees in Real Estate and Entrepreneurship from the University of Central Florida, which have paved the way for his successful career in the industry.

With several years of experience as a solo agent, Jon recognized the importance of collaboration which led to the formation of The Shell Group, a dynamic partnership between Jon Shell and Michael James.

At The Shell Group, time is recognized as the most valuable asset. Jon and his team prioritize understanding their clients' long-term needs, goals, and dreams. They view real estate as the vehicle through which these aspirations can be achieved. Leveraging their unique local knowledge and extensive network connections, The Shell Group is dedicated to helping clients make their real estate dreams a reality.

Outside of his real estate career, Jon loves spending time with his wife and two kids. He's an avid surfer, skater, and fisherman. Additionally, Jon works with a non-profit organization he founded called "Upward Intuition." This organization played a pivotal role in bringing the Blake Doyle Skatepark to fruition in Downtown Pensacola, the first phase of a larger linear park that will benefit the local community for years to come.

Jon Shell and The Shell Group invite you to reach out and connect with them. They genuinely welcome the opportunity to get to know you and be an integral part of your real estate journey. With their expertise, dedication, and local insights, you can trust Jon and his team to navigate the real estate market and help you achieve your property goals.

Mic James
Realtor®

Mic grew up in Milton, just outside of Pensacola, and has been helping people buy and sell homes in the area for nearly 10 years. He and Jon met through their shared love of skateboarding and fundraising for the Blake Doyle Skatepark and have been a solid real estate duo ever since.


Mic goes to bat for his clients on every deal. Whether it’s lining up inspections, repairs, or negotiating with vendors, he makes sure the job gets done right, at a fair price, and on time. Over the years, he’s built a go-to list of trusted vendors who deliver quality work—so his clients don’t have to stress about the details.

When he’s not showing homes or working on deals, you’ll probably find him cruising around the Blake Doyle Skatepark, working on his motorcycle, or watching the Celtics. If you ever want to talk real estate—or just grab a coffee—Mic’s always down to meet up (and he probably knows the best spot).



Hannah Brown
Operations Director

Hannah grew up in Pace, FL, and has always considered the Gulf Coast home. After graduating from the University of Southern Mississippi, she jumped into real estate as an admin at Levin Rinke Realty, where she got her start and fell in love with the industry.

In 2017, she and her husband, Zach, moved to Tampa, where she joined Smith & Associates Real Estate. During her time there, she gained valuable experience, especially in the world of compliance and behind-the-scenes operations.

The two made their way back to Pensacola in the summer of 2024, and soon after, she joined The Shell Group as Operations Director. These days, she wears a lot of hats — from managing transactions and keeping the office running smoothly to helping out with social media and marketing.

When she’s not keeping everything on track at The Shell Group, you’ll probably find her and Zach checking out a local brewery, relaxing at the beach, or hanging out with their dog, Hooper, and their cat, Stevie Nicks.
