About Colton
Originally from Santa Barbara, California, Colton is a driven individual whose resilience and global perspective have shaped his inspiring journey. A standout high school football player, he faced a major setback after tearing his ACL, losing the athletic scholarships he had worked so hard to earn. Refusing to let this define him, Colton began at junior college, determined to rebuild his path. His perseverance led him to Palm Beach, where he secured both athletic and academic scholarships-and, more importantly, discovered his true calling in international business. He went on to earn his master's degree, solidifying his commitment to a career that bridges cultures and connects people across borders.
Today, Colton is proud to channel that passion as a member of Jewelmer, an international jewelry house present in sixteen countries. While his work allows him to deepen his global outlook, his sense of purpose extends far beyond business. Colton is honored to dance on behalf of Jewelmer in support of the Palm Beach Ray of Hope, a cause especially meaningful to him. His brother, an active member of the United States Navy, has served with VFA-37, the "Ragin' Bulls," aboard the USS Gerald R. Ford. Through his performance in Dancing with the Palm Beach Stars, Colton seeks not only to celebrate veterans but also to raise vital support for those who have given so much in service to the nation. With his competitive spirit and heartfelt dedication, Colton hopes to inspire others to unite philanthropy, community, and global vision.
