Résumé / Creative leadership

Creative leadership,
without losing
the craft.

I’m Garrett—a video leader, creative thinker and storyteller who builds ambitious work from first idea through final delivery. I lead teams, strengthen production systems and stay close enough to the edit to protect what makes a story connect.
