Get to know our Project Manager
Introducing Brett Garret!
With years of experience in project management under his belt, Brett Garret is the steadying influence guiding each Griffin development to fruition. Without his leadership and knowledge, our projects would never make it past infancy. Supervising every step from planning through construction to final hand over, he always manages to do so with a cheerful smile and a terrible joke or two. We sat down recently for a little Q&A with Brett to get to know him better.
