Brett is a knowledgeable and great software engineer to work with. As a marketer developing a website, he was a pleasure to work with from understanding the vision, creative direction and bringing smart software solutions to the build. He meets all deadlines and pays attention to the details, making our website build a success. I highly recommend working with Brett, he's smart and a pleasure to partner with.

Brett is a high value engineer that excels in both communication and implementation. His ability to think on his feet, actively seek out best practices and take initiative on his own areas of improvement were invaluable to our small team. I very much value his autonomy, time management, pragmatism, and decision making skills within our team. As well as his flexibility as we chase best practices and requested features. These assets put him above other engineers with comparable years of front end development I’ve worked with in the past. I believe he would make a great addition to any team Kyle Goines Lead Frontend engineer Adheretech https://github.com/kylegoines
