Brett’s first job was on a dairy farm in Wisconsin. This is where he began to learn responsibility and the importance of a great work ethic. After moving to Michigan at the beginning of high school, Brett had few interests besides hockey. He became a USA hockey official and learned many leadership skills throughout his time as a referee. In those same years, Brett taught himself how to program and code while working for his father’s business. Brett continued to grow his skills and knowledge base throughout his career and has become a successful self taught technology guru and leader at Xeratec.
