About Brett Morris

As a Program Manager specializing in supply chain optimization for Amazon\'s Direct Fulfillment organization, I blend data-driven decision making with strong relationship building to optimize our fulfillment network\'s operations. My unique background combines military leadership as an 11-year Coast Guard Veteran, analytical expertise from my Masters in Oceanography, and extensive business experience—allowing me to approach complex challenges from multiple angles.I leverage technical skills in SQL, Excel, and emerging AI tools to transform data into compelling narratives that drive action. I believe lasting success comes from combining analytical rigor with genuine human connection. I pride myself on building trust through active listening, demonstrating patience in complex situations, and maintaining warm, approachable energy that helps teams thrive.Currently pursuing my MBA at UW\'s Foster School of Business. I\'m expanding my business acumen while applying my diverse background to solve complex problems. My approach centers on asking \"why\" to uncover root causes, showing persistence in finding solutions, and ensuring all stakeholders feel heard and valued throughout the process.When I\'m not working or studying, you\'ll find me running, backpacking and hiking (Three Fingers Lookout in the North Cascades is my favorite hike to this day!), biking, yoga (instructor from 20••••20), and reading.
