Garrett Hubbard is a staff Video Journalist at USA TODAY and is pretty sure he has the best job in the world. Most of his projects have a video and still photographic component for both the print and online editions of the paper.

Garrett believes that stories revealing truth can change lives. He is a visual storyteller because he wants to encourage, challenge, and motivate his viewers into action. Garrett hopes to communicate God's heart for justice, the brokenhearted and the suffering through a medium that can touch hearts.

Prior to joining the USA TODAY staff, Hubbard told photo and documentary video stories for USA TODAY, The Washington Post and The New York Times. Before moving to Washington D.C. in 2007, he worked as a staff video journalist and photojournalist at the Naples (Fla.) Daily News.

Hubbard received a Visual Journalism Associates Degree from the Brooks Institute of Photography in Ventura, Calif. and his Bachelor of Arts in Accounting and Economics at the University California Santa Barbara.
