Pete Navarra
My name is Pete Navarra.
I am a Sitecore MVP (2018, 2017 Technologist) and an experienced IT professional (executive, director, manager, developer) working in the web industry. I have come from many walks of life with a rich history of personal loss, professional success, and plain old dumb luck. This blog serves as my outlet for saying the things that I need to say, sharing my life stories and professional trials and tribulations.
I’ve have been working with Sitecore since January of 2008 and have been on quite the amazing journey of learning about the platform, working with various agencies, product companies and doing dozens upon dozens of Sitecore implementations. I am about as enthusiastic about Sitecore as I am food. If you’ve seen my waistline, you’ll understand.
Since early 2017, I’ve been Director of Technical Strategy and Sitecore Practice Lead at Connective DX, a Sitecore Gold Partner. At Connective DX, we specialize in customer experience, engagement, insights, and optimization. Our Sitecore Practice delivers high-quality Sitecore implementations with an eye towards best practices and enabling our clients to fully utilize the Sitecore Experience Platform.
I specialize in Platform Architecture, Problem Solving, and Mentoring!
