About
I'm Garrett Miller, a designer, artist & self-proclaimed awesome dude.
I was born and raised on a rural farm in Maryland. I enjoy running, good wine, bad beer, dried mango, biking, hopscotch, movies, pondering adventures, kicking ass (and the subsequent name-taking-down that ensues), and making fun of people with popped collars behind their backs.
I graduated from Oberlin College in 2006 with double majors in Studio Art and Being Awesome. I now live in the Washington DC area and support my renegade, bad-boy lifestyle as a web designer.
You can also check me out at my portfolio, the Envelope Collective or hey! studio (coming soon).
