Mitch Earp
Mitchell was born and raised in Tallahassee, FL, to a wonderfully large family where he found three of his great passions in life: golf, the great outdoors, and college football! After college, he moved from Tallahassee, FL, to Park City, UT, to try his hand in the ski industry and ended up falling in love with the hospitality industry. As it would turn out, he can thank his large family for naturally curating a love and appreciation for authentic hospitality. After over a decade in Utah, he is excited to bring his passion for hospitality and life itself to Charleston.
Mitch has a distant relative who owned the John Rutledge House from 1843–1853!
Natalie Burch
Born and raised in Northern Virginia, Natalie brings a passion for hospitality and creating meaningful guest experiences to her role at the John Rutledge House Inn. A graduate in Hospitality and Tourism Management at Virginia Tech, Natalie built her foundation through hotel operations and leadership management with Marriott. Natalie is excited to now call Charleston home and be part of its historic charm. She especially enjoys walking the Battery at sunrise, exploring Charleston’s vibrant restaurant scene, and discovering the city’s hidden courtyards and waterfront views. She looks forward to helping guests experience the same charm and character that makes Charleston so special.
