Bio
Mathias Takacs
I have worked with Garett across multiple projects over the past few years. Garetts wizardry has streamlined artists workflow and made production faster, easier and more effective. In all the time that I have know Garett, I have never seen him get frustrated even under tight deadlines and stressful situations. His personality makes him an absolute pleasure to work with. Garett really knows how to bring a team together and make it feel like a family, and that is critical to any team or studios success. I would love to work with Garett again one day.
Aaron Bossert
Working with Garett on a central tech team over the last 5 years has been such a blessing. He is known for applying liberal amounts of common sense, and puns, to any situation he faces. He’s extremely well liked by everyone from designers and artists to software developers alike because of his ability to take an ugly problem set and chop it into a beautiful set of maintainable features. After 15 years as an engineer he has become a role model for the craft. From the lowest levels of his code all the way up to the user facing GUI, everything is simple, neat, and an extreme pleasure to work with to work with. Just like Garett.
