Who We Are?

Growing up on the Kitsap Peninsula instilled in Garrett a profound dedication to community health and resilience. After earning his Bachelor of Science in Biomedical Sciences from the University of Washington Tacoma and working alongside PhD mentors on groundbreaking research into Realtime medical diagnostics, he channeled his passion into emergency medicine by completing a rigorous two-year EMT-Paramedic program.

In 2012, Garrett honed his disaster-response skills at the International ALERT Academy in Northeast Texas, partnering with Samaritan’s Purse to deliver critical aid amid tornado, wildfire, and hurricane relief efforts. In 2015 he travelled to rural Uganda, where he collaborated with local clinicians to establish a foundational clinic and provided first-aid care to dozens of residents each day. These experiences cemented his resolve to leverage medical training as a force for lasting community impact.

Upon returning to Washington, Garrett founded Peninsula CPR, a company devoted to Emergency Health and Wellness certification for small businesses and medical clinics across the state. Under his leadership, Peninsula CPR has equipped these organizations with life-saving skills and protocols, strengthening preparedness and confidence at the neighborhood level.

Today, Garrett remains unwavering in his commitment to “Our Community, Our Health,” focusing on hands-on patient care and practical training to uplift the well-being of his fellow Washingtonians. Through targeted outreach and compassionate service, he ensures that every small business and clinic he partners with has the knowledge and resources needed to thrive.
