Garrett is the founder of QR Code Reader “SCAN”.  He saw a great product that was presented in an “ugly and cluttered” market.  He was able to take what was already out there and refine it.  He brought to the market what others could not, a product that was more functional, more aesthetically pleasing, and user friendly.  In essence, that is what garret is, more refined version of what we should be.  He sees past the clutter and nonsense and clarifies and refines what is before him.  Faced with failure right out of high-school he had a humbling moment where he realized things were not going to come easy; he decided from that point that he would not fail again, and he has excelled ever since.  Listen for an inspiring Entrepreneurial Journey and great mind.
