About Me

Born and raised in Springfield, Illinois, Chef Colin Creighton’s family moved to Charleston in 2013. Colin, whose chef-father serves as his inspiration, began working in restaurants at age 14 while attending Wando High School in Mount Pleasant. He met Villa Resort Chef Tournant Cory O’Connor at 16, and Cory quickly took Colin under his wing. Upon Cory’s insistence, Colin attended Johnson & Wales University in Charlotte, earning both an Associate Degree and a BA while continuing to work at leading restaurants in the Queen City. He returned to Charleston to become Chef de Cuisine at Florence’s Lowcountry Kitchen before being recruited to serve as Sous Chef at Players’ Pub early in 2021. There, he soon advanced to Chef de Cuisine, where he is grateful for the opportunity to contribute his talents to the resort dining experience.
