No, your eyes aren't playing tricks on you! Meet Garrett Johnson, an Oklahoma Native and one half of the dynamic duo, along with his identical twin, Grant. With a knack for insurance, business development, management, and client relations, Garrett's career journey is a testament to his commitment to excellence and growth, both personally and professionally.

When he's not closing deals or leading teams to success, you can catch him spending time together with his wife and three kiddos, teeing off on the golf course, or laughing at the comedy club. Beware, his stand-up comedy obsession isn't just for laughs—it's serious business!
