“I am twenty-eight (28) years old and I’m proud to call southeast Indiana home. I live in Aurora with my lovely wife Haylee and our beautiful daughter Johanna. My family is my world, and I don’t know what I would do without them.”
(Campaign website) “Hoosiers deserve better than political theater and bending the knee to big money interests. I’m running for State Representative to bring real progress to District 68. To be a voice for hard working families, and to focus on the issues that actually matter. Things like strong local schools, addiction recovery and accessible healthcare, legalizing cannabis, and making your dollar go further in Indiana.”
(Campaign website) “We envision a southeast Indiana where every family has access to strong public schools, quality healthcare, economic opportunity, and safe communities. A district where working people, not wealthy elites, shape our future. Where infrastructure meets the needs of our towns, jobs pay a fair wage, and leaders are accountable to the people they serve. Together, we will build a state where hard work is respected, families can thrive, and everyday Hoosiers come first.”

“In high school, Garrett was diagnosed with Complex Motor Tic, a version of Tourette Syndrome that affects physical motion. Garrett has watched close family members struggle with significant mental health issues, and this has ignited a passion within Garrett to address Indiana’s mental health crisis. He has seen firsthand as a prosecutor and as a public defender what has worked and where we need additional effort to improve the mental health system.”
(Campaign website) “As a former deputy prosecutor, Garrett will ensure law enforcement has the state funding necessary to provide adequate training, equipment, and resources to keep our communities safe. To address Indiana’s growing drug and mental health crisis, law enforcement professionals need support from legislators that will equip them with the tools and resources necessary to address the unique challenges facing Hoosier communities.”
(Campaign website) “In Indianapolis, Garrett will be a staunch advocate for our Constitutional right to bear arms. Garrett takes pride in Indiana being a constitutional carry state, and he will fight to ensure that right is never infringed upon.”
