Garren’s life has been shaped by sport, influenced by culture and amplified by his passions for travel, music, fashion, art, and tech.
Growing up in San Jose, CA, Garren learned lessons that only sport could teach you early on. A student of the game, sport unlocked the journey that brought Garren to Oregon. First to the University of Oregon, and then Nike quickly after.
Garren spent 11 years at Nike, leading some of the brands most historic transformation moments, starting with the reinvention of Nike Training & Football. As a brand marketer, Garren held a successful track record creating the most authentic narratives for consumers who obsessed Football as much as he did.
His brand marketing success led him to a role of a lifetime, leading the Brand Jordan 1 product franchise. With the fusion of his brand marketing background, business acumen combined with his love for product and consumer-centric mindset, Garren led the franchise to new heights, breaking all projected financial records the company set forth.
In 2020, Garren made the bold move to pursue his entrepreneurial dreams and create his own brand; CRCL OF WNNRS. A lifestyle brand, rooted in a winners mindset, and the commitment to push you and your circle to define winning on your terms.

Garren is the ultimate architect of his narrative with precision, intention and focus in everything he does. His success is not measured by the speedometer but rather the odometer. His belief that we go farther together has not only unlocked doors to his success but has also taught him to always bring others along with him.
An optimist. A curator. A competitor. The ultimate catalyst. The calm in a storm. Fearless in his pursuit of greatness.
