Hi, I'm Garrett (he/him).
I'm studying Design + HCI @ Carnegie Mellon University.
As a designer, I aim to make stuff that improves people's day-to-day lives. In practice, this means creating and adapting ideas, services, and experiences to be aesthetic, usable, and resonant, be it a silly animation that makes passersby smile, an identity for a night market that brings revenue to small businesses, a website that excites users about something they've never heard of, or anything in between.
If I'm not designing, I'm probably reading a book (currently "Pachinko" by Min Jin Lee), following a TikTok (or Instagram Reels) coffee recipe, or exploring one of the many wonders Pittsburgh has to offer (most recently, the Zoo).
