Growing up on Canada’s west coast, Garrett was inspired to try luge after watching his older brother, Parker. At just seven years old, in January 2011, Garrett hopped on a sled himself for the first time at the Whistler Sliding Centre and he was hooked. He’s been sliding ever since, commuting form West Vancouver to Whistler, B.C.
Outside of luge, Garrett loves sailing. He is a member of the NSST Race Team sailing laser radial and full rig on the BC circuit in 2015 - the same year he won the 4.7 class overall. Garrett also enjoys biking and playing soccer as well as spending time with his grandparents.
His older brother did luge for six seasons before switching to bobsleigh where he competed for Canada in monobob at the Youth Olympic Games.
