Living throughout the Southeast US the past several years including Palm Coast, FL, Pensacola, FL and now Suwannee, GA, Garrett has experience with many different business climates.

Garrett was born and raised in Michigan and spent most of his free time enjoying the outdoors. He’s travelled up and down the coasts of the Great Lakes, fished throughout the state and spent many weekends camping and visiting Mackinac Island. After making multiple trips to Chicago’s Magnificent Mile, he became addicted to the Chicago Deep Dish style pizza. Garrett says, “I truly miss the ability to make a short drive around the southern part of Lake Michigan to enjoy an original Chicago-style deep dish pizza.”

Garrett is eagerly looking forward to “Amplifying the Voice of Business” for all businesses within the Gwinnett County area.
