Bay Area Coordinator

Self-proclaimed World's Best Dad

Garrett and James started their bromance while working in the private sector.

No one really liked them and everyone thought they were both crazy so it just all worked out.

Garrett started his career as a NorCal area Sheriff's Dept. From there, he transitioned to working overseas security contracts and specialized in maritime security details in the Middle East and eventually worked with James. After hitch hiking around the country for a while, he started working in the Executive Protection field for high net worth individuals based in the California Bay Area.
