My name is Garrett! I am thirty eight years old, born and raised in California, and have been married to my beautiful wife Adrie for seventeen wonderful years. We have two children, Graham age five and Elle age three. At age fifteen I received my call into ministry and have pursued it ever since. For the past fourteen years, I’ve had the privilege of serving in full-time worship ministry, leading people into meaningful moments with God through music.

 

My heart is simple: I love Jesus and I want people to truly encounter Him in this way— not just sing songs, but experience His presence as His child. This is where real ministry happens, not through a pastor or a lyric, but by the power of the Holy Spirit and a genuine connection to a heavenly Father who loves them so deeply. It's with this attitude that I approach ministry. I strive to create an environment where all people may encounter the Holy Spirit and let Him do what He does.

​

I’m also passionate about building healthy, thriving ministry teams where worship leaders, and creatives feel valued, equipped, and inspired. I believe worship is both pastoral and creative — it requires spiritual sensitivity, strong leadership, and thoughtful prayer. And so I strive to live a life on the platform that is congruent with my life off the platform.

​

Beyond the platform and work, my life is full of many other passions and things that bring me joy. I love vinyl records, tacos, long distance biking, phó, live music, playing drums and of course, my family. My wife Adrie and I have made it a priority to experience new cultures, people and places. In our 17 years of marriage we’ve visited many countries. Even still, our favorite pastime is enjoying the sunshine with our kids at the beach.
