Prior to joining USMS, Colton attended Florida State University, where he earned both his bachelor’s and master's degrees in finance. Throughout his five years at FSU, he competed on the FSU Swim Club and served on the club’s executive board as Competition Coordinator. In this role, he was responsible for coordinating the club's home swim meets, which included two College Club Swimming Regional Championship events.

He also spent two years on the CCS Advisory Board, serving as the Regional Championship Liaison. In that role, he oversaw and supported the hosts of the annual regional championships held each fall. Colton is excited to join USMS to continue pursuing his passion for organizing successful swimming events and he looks forward to continuing to train and compete as a USMS member himself!
