Brian Bessert

Grosse Pointe Woods,MI

Summary

Lifelong competitive hockey player, and that’s where I learned how to lead, show up under pressure, and outwork the guy next to me. That mindset shaped who I am — driven, disciplined, and ready to keep growing. I bring strong communication skills, a real presence, and a team-first attitude into everything I do. Now I’m channeling that same energy into the next chapter — one that challenges me, pushes me, and rewards performance.
