Behind the Scenes: Meet Brett Humphrey, Principal Product Manager and Advocate for Accessibility

 

Hi Microsoft 365 Insiders!

 

Behind every great innovation at Microsoft, there’s a story of passion and purpose. Meet Brett Humphrey, a principal product manager whose 25-year journey has been driven by a commitment to accessibility.

 

As we approach Global Accessibility Awareness Day, Brett shares his personal and professional milestones that underscore the importance of inclusive technology. From his mother’s influence to his own experiences with low vision, Brett’s narrative is a powerful reminder of why accessibility matters.

 

"Accessibility isn't just about the number of people impacted; it's about access," Brett asserts. His work on Microsoft Teams’ design principles—efficiency, predictability, and clarity—reflects a deep understanding of the challenges faced by people with disabilities.
