A day in the life of an Optimizely OMVP: Learning Optimizely Just Got Easier: Introducing the Optimizely Learning Centre

We've all been there. You're eager to learn a new tool or platform, but the official documentation feels overwhelming. You read through pages of technical jargon, follow along with examples that don't quite click, and wonder if there's a better way.

What People Say

Kind words from colleagues and clients

"I've had the privilege of working with Graham for several years, and he represents everything you want in a Solutions Architect – technical depth, strategic thinking, and an approach that makes the entire team better. Graham is someone who bridges the gap between vision and delivery seamlessly. You can trust him with complex architectural challenges and know they'll be solved properly, pragmatically, and without unnecessary complexity. He doesn't just design solutions in isolation – he understands the real-world constraints of implementation and works across platforms and technologies to find the right approach, not just the most elegant one on paper. What really sets Graham apart is how he works with people. He's collaborative without ego, supportive of developers implementing his designs, and genuinely pleasant to work with every single day. He brings clarity to complexity and makes everyone around him more effective. In an industry that can sometimes attract difficult personalities, Graham is a breath of fresh air – technically excellent and a genuinely good person. Any organisation would be significantly stronger with Graham on their team!"
