Dark Seas and Loser Machine would like to introduce our newest team member, Garrett Turk. We set our sights on finding what we acknowledged is an anomaly in our industry. We looked high and low for someone that is able to blur the lines between a creative and analytical mind at just the right ratio for our needs. The candidate had to be passionate and energetic when it comes to sales, product, and branding. Someone that is grounded, has a team mentality, and isn’t afraid to roll up the sleeves no matter the task. Someone that understands and thrives on the challenges associated with building brands in the current climate.
Garrett not only checked the boxes, he came with some additional factors that are a natural fit with Loser Machine and Dark Seas. A family man with 3 kids, he and his wife live in south Orange County. He has spent a good deal of time traveling, and has strong roots on the East Coast, which we have always felt is an influential part of the brands DNA. Garrett was at Stance for 7 years prior to joining us. His focus there was at a director level across sales, brand marketing, and retail experience platforms. Prior to his tenure at Stance, Garrett spent 1 year at Transworld Media as an account executive across multiple titles, and as the east coast sales manager at Electric Visual for the 4 previous years. His network of friends and the strength of the relationships he has formed while being in the industry speaks volumes about Garrett’s abilities and character.
Garrett will play an important role as director of new business development for Loser Machine and Dark Seas. He will be looking for strategic opportunities, and elevating the brands across the board. We welcome Garrett and look forward to a bright future with the team.
