Bio
Bradley Eichenberg
Brett was a student of mine in the fall and winter of 2019. Working with Brett was always a pleasure as he had a very good grasp of the material and was an excellent problem solver. Not only that, but his previous marketing experience was very transparent as much of his design work was very impressive and made him standout. I got to know Brett well due to the fact that he literally beat me to class every day ready to learn and finish all his work. His project work and attitude was very professional and he deserves every recommendation he gets. He was certainly a standout in my class and I’m certain he will always strive to learn and grow as a software engineer. I look forward to working with Brett again in the future.

I've been fortunate to have known Brett from college thru to becoming coworkers. As Brett's direct manager at Brandmuscle, I worked closely with him over the past 5 years. Brett has always shown excellent communication skills and consistently exceeded what was asked of him. These projects could be as small as training news employees on our platforms (US and global resources), to overhauling entire client sites by designing, coding, and implementing final designs. Seriously, no project is too big for this guy! Over the last 14 years, I’ve always been in awe of what he’s been able to accomplish. On a personal level, he has always shown up for me and it’s always been with a great attitude. I’m excited to see him bring his skill set to his future role(s). Again, I have so much faith in Brett, and his successes are evident. Anyone would be lucky to have him on their team!
