Skutta received the Technology MVP title for the fourth year in a row, and Crosby was recognized as an Ambassador for the second year in a row.

We’re proud of Crosby and Skutta for representing One North as a leader in delivering unique digital experiences.”

Crosby is one of this year’s 74 Ambassadors, and Skutta is one of 186 Technology MVPs.

Their latest contributions include developing One North’s Sitecore for PSO offering, an experience tailored to professional services and business-to-business organizations and designed to help firms maximize their Sitecore investment. In addition, Crosby appeared on an all-female panel at Sitecore’s annual symposium, and Skutta contributed his technical expertise in a “how-to” blog series.
