After successful forays in both the Hospitality and Staffing & Recruiting industries, Garrett elected to make the transition into the Transportation & Logistics world, joining NORA in October of 2019. Quickly rising through the ranks, Garrett has held many roles throughout his tenure with NORA, including Transportation & Client Service Coordinator, Dispatch Supervisor, Director of Flight Operations, Director of Dispatch Operations, and most recently, Executive Director of Aviation Programs, fulfilling a long-standing career goal to work in the charter aviation industry and a lifelong passion for helping people.
