Colton Orr currently works as a Strategy Associate at an E-Commerce Startup solving large system problems.
Prior to joining the program in 2019, Colton graduated with Honors in History from Kenyon College. His dissertation for the CU/LSE program explored the social and economic conditions that precipitated a new winemaking style in Western Europe and Northern California during the late 20th century. To supplement his argument that natural winemaking was a particular social reinterpretation of winemaking's economic and scientific evolution in the post war period, he conducted 30+ hrs of solo interviews to bring unique perspectives into conversation. Outside of wine and ecommerce, Colton is interested in fashion, film, and the warm California sunshine.
