A bit about me:

First, I am a Christian. I make a living helping other people.

I specialize in graphic and layout design. I also design websites.

I used to create with legos and crayons; now I create with pixels and paper. But I can't resist playing with my daughters' toys!

Being a husband and father is a high calling, with many joys.

I was born in 1987. You can do the math.

I drink black coffee and sparkling water. Not together.

I am subscribed to more email newsletters than I could ever read. But that's one way I keep up with the design industry. Keep learning.

I'll let my clients take it from here:

We worked with Garison over the past year on graphic design and implementation of a significant marketing campaign for an annual conference and associated conference website. Garison is a very talented graphic designer. His work is visually concise, impactful, and optimized for mobile communication. Garison is also easy to work with. He is an excellent listener, pleasurable to communicate with, and highly responsive. Garison stepped into an existing project and was able to quickly and efficiently make a meaningful impact in a short period of time. What is unique for a talented graphic designer like Garison is that he is also a very good problem solver who is able to work with multiple mediums, technologies, and systems. We really valued Garison's practicality - he is flexible and mission focused."

Working with Garison has been fantastic. Our business is a new startup and very fast-paced, with constant changes and new needs. Garison is highly responsive to our requests and questions, and we’ve come to trust not only his skilled and beautiful work, but also his guidance and suggestions when he feels changes would make the designs more powerful. We consider Garison a partner versus a contractor and he plays a critical role as we crystallize our brand. I highly recommend him to my clients and friends."

Garison has a number of tools in his toolbox. On a tight schedule he created a logo, post card, website, stickers, and a large truck wrap design almost simultaneously and met all of my deadlines. We were thrilled with the results. He proved to be a great resource and created T-shirts, guitar picks and other promotional products. Working with designers and artists can be challenging at times. Garison made this process easier through his very articulate emails. He is a wordsmith. This made our communication very fluent as we were bouncing ideas back and forth in the design process.

Garison continues to help with projects as we are always developing new marketing ideas and products to better communicate our message. Currently we are working on a sign and banners for our company. He has been and is a valuable resource with great integrity. He does what he says he is going to do.”
