“Brett joined the Wells Fargo US Privacy Team shortly after he left the Navy JAG core and right at the beginning of COVID. He hit the ground running, supporting COVID and CCPA-related projects immediately. He proved himself to be a privacy leader, in CCPA and CPRA most specifically, and an key contributor in all projects for which he was engaged. He showed leadership across his projects and across the team, lending his support and expertise wherever and whenever is needed. He brought to his immediate team both a high degree of emotional intelligence as well as meaningful context (such as with his technology related efforts). Brett would be an asset to any privacy team and to any company smart enough to see his leadership in and passion for privacy, leadership skills, and hard work ethic.”
