## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you specifically need Brad Garlinghouse's (@bgarlinghouse) Twitter/X profile data — his bio, follower metrics, verification status, and profile images — rather than his tweets, mentions, or followers list. It is a fixed-target profile lookup, not a parameterized search, so it is ideal when the subject is always bgarlinghouse.
