I had the privilege of working with Garrett for over eight years. He is the most enthusiastic, hard-working person I’ve ever worked with. He isn’t afraid to roll up his sleeves and get into the details. He also has the unique ability to step out of the trenches and give a thought-provoking strategic perspective. I also have had the honor of mentoring Garrett and watching him grow. He was a key builder in a global events program, global startup network and took his leadership to the next level as CEO. He is a humble listener and strong strategic thinker. I am confident that he has many more world-changing milestones in his path.

Here's the thing about Garrett: he's always ready for more. Garrett and I worked closely together around the clock and around the world, while we organized and executed the Challenge Cup, a global startup tournament. During our time together, I saw (and encouraged!) his growth on a daily basis. No problem was too complex; no workload was too big; no timezone was too painful. He went from executing the events to planning the events to leading the program to leading the product to leading the company. The cherry on top? He's a delight. You want to work with Garrett.
