Bret Willett

PE, LEED AP

Business Development Director
Solving puzzles and creating structures with Tinker Toys and Lincoln Logs came naturally to Bret at an early age. Passing by construction sites and seeing how building projects progressed over time fascinated him and, as luck would have it, math and science came naturally to him as well. His passion combined with his ability to connect with people made him the perfect fit to lead teams across the country and work on some of the world's largest and most recognizable brands. Through a variety of roles at Henderson, Brett has been able to build relationships and be part of a growing team helping clients reach their goals every step of the way. With his LEED AP credential from the U.S. Green Building Council, Bret prioritizes sustainable solutions that deliver meaningful environmental benefits while enhancing the end user experience.

In his spare time, Bret volunteers at a local food pantry in Kansas City, takes road trips to explore national treasures like the Grand Canyon and Yosemite, and goes on walks with his sweet black Lab named Stella. He also loves attending rock concerts throughout the year and takes annual ski trips to Colorado.
