Brett visualizes a world where the building industry shifts to a sustainable and green environment. He studied environmental science but later realized he wasn't very good at it. He shifted to world environmental policy, infrastructure, and energy and worked with the US Conference Mayors in Washington. He was the sustainability director for the AIA and the founder of the Tree Line Strategy- a one-person consulting gig for strategic communications and execution in private and public sectors.
