At Wevise, our volunteers embody the spirit of collaboration, resilience, and generosity that drives our mission forward. Each month, we spotlight one individual whose contributions stand out for the impact they create across our programs. For August, we are proud to recognize Brett Adler as our Volunteer of the Month.
Brett’s story with Wevise is one of adaptability and stepping up when it mattered most. Initially joining the team to support QA testing, Brett quickly found himself contributing far beyond that role. During a critical transition period for the organization, when the product faced a issues after its initial release (as most products do), he jumped in to strengthen both product functionality and documentation.
“I think I’m being recognized more for the work I did outside my QA responsibilities,” Brett reflected. “There was just a real need at the time, and I wanted to do what I could to help.”
That willingness to stretch beyond expectations is what made Brett’s efforts so impactful. By addressing problems head-on and bolstering documentation, he not only helped stabilize the Wevise product but also made it easier for others to engage with and improve the platform going forward.
Brett brings a wide-ranging skillset to his volunteer work. With a professional background spanning product design, front-end development, and QA testing, he’s also passionate about mentoring others in these fields. His experience has given him a keen eye for both technical detail and user experience, qualities that proved invaluable in his Wevise contributions.

Currently, Brett is in between roles, and he’s looking ahead to new career opportunities. In the meantime, Wevise has benefited tremendously from his energy, expertise, and collaborative spirit. Nowhere is this more apparent than in his mentorship: Brett is guiding two mentees on a software development track through Wevise’s TechPath Alliance.
“I love just giving back,” he said. “I like paying it forward. I’ve always been the one that always got involved in things like this.”
Outside of Wevise, Brett finds balance in the outdoors. Whether hiking local trails or spending time with his dog, Lucy, he enjoys recharging in nature.
Brett’s adaptability, technical depth, and dedication have been a vital part of Wevise’s progress over the past months. We are thrilled to celebrate his contributions and proud to name him our August 2025 Volunteer of the Month.
