Garrett Funkhouser
Director of Product & UX

I lead design teams that ship measurable outcomes - and I build with AI.

Twenty years across design, front-end, and leadership - including founding, scaling, and selling my own e-commerce business. I run the full user-centered design process and pair it with hands-on analytics, experimentation, and AI-driven automation. Design that can't prove its impact is decoration.

Why AI-Native

This site is part of the portfolio.

It was designed, coded, and deployed by an AI agent I run - working from my design direction, my archive, and my analytics. That's the same way I work inside a design org: the craft stays human, the toil gets automated, and the team ships faster. A leader who only talks about AI adoption is behind; I operate it daily.

Off the Clock

Dad first. Then espresso, keyboards, and anything with wheels.

Father to Gavin and Reese. Published photographer, retired knee-dragger, wakeboarder, 3D-printing nerd, and a man who takes coffee extraction entirely too seriously.
