After a landslide election, well, it was a tiny landslide of a
6-vote margin, Joshua joined Town Council in 2016. With this mandate, the
councilor from District 5 and current council vice president very much enjoys
making Zionsville a better place to live and helping to attract new businesses
to the area. Always ready with a quick joke, his jesting nature shouldn't
be mistaken for taking a given topic less than seriously. There’s always
room for a little bit of fun.
Joshua is co-founder and President of MOBI, which has been proudly
based in Zionsville since 2002. In his
personal life, Garrett realized his dream of being the next American Idol would
never come true. He soon set his sights on mountain climbing to scale the
highest peaks on all 7 continents. The next day, while sledding with his
children, Garrett determined he liked neither the cold, nor walking uphill and
quickly abandoned that effort. He now spends most of his time trying to
avoid embarrassing or annoying his beautiful wife. Any remaining energy
is spent reading, playing with his three kids and the occasional game of
basketball, despite his previously mentioned beautiful wife telling him he’s
“too old”. She will be less than supportive during his rehab when he
eventually blows out an ACL (or worse). He’ll spend that time on the
couch watching horror movies in reverse because he prefers stories that end
with a happy camping trip.
If you need to contact him, his door (inbox) is always open and
he’s happy to chat. His contact info is jgarrett@zionsville-in.gov and
during basketball weather you can leave a message for “White Lightning” with
people playing pick-up games in Lions Park.
When asked to comment on this bio his wife is quoted as saying
“Wait, you’re not really going to submit that are you?”
