We've been working with Brett for many years now and he remains a constant and guiding presence for our company. Not only is he deeply talented, decidedly brilliant and incredibly innovative, he's also one of the most intuitive developers you'll ever meet. By that I mean he has the kind of preternatural instincts that not only anticipate your needs, they surpass them tenfold. Brett is readily available, answers every question with clarity and sage-like wisdom and never makes you feel there's anything that can't be solved. Friendly, enthusiastic, genuine and fast, he's a comprehensive developer with a bottomless toolbox. You're in GREAT hands with Brett!

Brett Widmann has been the web designer for DC Metro Theater Arts since its inception in 2012. He has become an indispensable member of our team. Brett is always on hand when the site needs emergency work, and his knowledge of web design has allowed us to remain a top-ranking site in our field. When we did a massive redesign of our website last year, Brett was instrumental in taking the site to the next level with a sleek, professional, and user-friendly design. I am grateful for all he does for our business.

As the developer for our Wordpress website Brett did a great job consulting with our designer, advising him of potential problems before we discovered them in development, and working through detailed changes. Brett always offered several options to challenging problems we had within the delivery process and did whatever was necessary to deliver the project on time. Brett was a pleasure to work with, so If you need an expert developer who is also a collaborative problem solver Brett Widmann is your guy!

Brett has been the guiding force through our company’s rebrand and website updating. He has an eye for detail and is able to advise on design beyond what a normal developer would do. Brett is patient and willing to go the extra mile to present various options beyond the normal scope of work. Because of his thoroughness we were able to make impactful decisions for the future of our brand.
