About Garrett
My passion is to lead compelling brands and businesses to connect people through art, culture, and community.
Hailing from Seattle but based in New York City, I love to foster ideas that balance calm and chaos.
As a creative founder and entrepreneur who loves launching big ideas with amazing people, I’m driven by the space between business, design, and communication in equally digital or physical environments.
I’ve worn many hats. My background uniquely marries brand, experience, strategy and architecture, giving me the opportunity to engage with owners, founders and fellow creatives to help organize and scale their aspirations through exciting, equitable and open strategies.
Clients & Collaborators
I’ve had the opportunity to work with some great organizations, from technology giants to design boutiques:
NeueHouse, Fotografiska, Google, Marriott, American Express, Chase, Mass Appeal, Acne Studios, Samsung, Vice, Viacom, Black Entertainment Television, Hewlett Packard, Stripe, Howard Hughes Corporation, Woods Bagot, Outpost Hospitality, Schiller Projects, OTJ, Surfacedesign Inc., Planted, Dirty Pretty Productions, Studio Loutsis, Apollo Essentials and many more.
