Meet Our 2026 Sitecore MVPs
Mark Ursino, 16x MVP, 2026 Ambassador MVP
As the Sitecore ecosystem continues to evolve, one thing has stayed the same year after year: the amazing community that shows up, shares, and supports one another. The Sitecore MVP program really captures that spirit, and 2026 feels like a big moment as the program grows into a world where AI is front and center. So much has changed over the years. Products have changed, technologies have changed, architectures have changed. In some ways, what used to be old feels new again. But the community has never stopped showing up. I’m genuinely excited about where Sitecore is heading in this new AI era and how confidently they are shaping the future. It feels like an energizing time to be part of this MVP community, and I can’t wait to help build what comes next.
Stephen Tynes, 14x MVP, 2026 Ambassador MVP
I’m incredibly excited to be named a Sitecore MVP for the 14th time. Sitecore continues to push the boundaries of what’s possible for modern marketers. Sitecore’s relentless focus on helping teams do more with less through smarter, faster, and more connected experiences perfectly matches the challenges marketers face right now. Even better, that innovation aligns seamlessly with Perficient’s AI-first strategy, where we’re turning intelligent platforms into real, measurable outcomes.
Joshua Hover, 5x MVP, 2026 Ambassador MVP
The Sitecore roadmap and the pace of AI innovation make the year ahead especially exciting. I’m looking forward to mentoring amazing mentees, growing the MVP community together, and partnering with Sitecore to highlight how the platform continues to evolve and lead.
Megan Mueller Jensen, 5x MVP, 2026 Strategy MVP
Being a part of the Sitecore MVP over the last five years has truly made me better at my work: it pushes me to stay curious, connected, and deeply informed about digital experience trends, ensuring I bring a more holistic, future‑oriented perspective to every solution I design and deliver. Most importantly, this community has given me the opportunity to build relationships with professionals from all over the world, from all walks of life. It’s also driven me to advocate for women, people of color, members of the LGBTQIA+ community, and people with disabilities entering the marketing technology field—creating pathways many of us once had to carve out alone. Looking ahead to 2026, I’m energized by the acceleration of AI-driven experiences, composable architectures becoming the norm, and the growing community of strategists with diverse lived experiences shaping the future of our digital world. Being part of this elite group of MVPs means I feel a responsibility to lead an ethical AI evolution, champion new voices, and continue making the industry more inclusive than it’s ever been.
Tiffany Laster, 3x MVP, 2026 Strategy MVP
I’m incredibly excited and genuinely grateful to be part of such a special MVP community. This community inspires me every day with its creativity, its problem‑solving spirit, and the way everyone shows up for one another to push innovation forward. With AI opening up an entirely new world of possibilities, I can’t wait to help shape how organizations embrace Sitecore products to build unforgettable digital experiences for their users and the teams behind them. Being surrounded by people who are passionate, supportive, and always striving to make things better makes this journey even more meaningful, and I’m thrilled to grow and contribute alongside this amazing community.
Eric Sanner, 3x MVP, 2026 Technology MVP
I’m excited, proud, and honored to be named a Sitecore Technology MVP for the third year in a row! Along with my fellow Perficient colleagues and friends around the world, the Sitecore Community is truly global community. MVPs are at the forefront of the changes in technology as the world moves to incorporate AI at every level by learning and sharing knowledge. But even as the technology changes, it is important to remember the human aspect of technology and the value of human connection. I’m excited to continue growing and learning with my fellow MVPs in 2026!
Joey Running, 1x MVP, 2026 Strategy MVP
Having been part of the Sitecore community for many years, being recognized with my first Strategy MVP award is both an honor and a meaningful milestone. This community represents far more than a group of platform experts. It is a collective of passionate leaders committed to elevating each other’s capabilities and advancing best practices that drive exceptional digital experiences. I’m excited to deepen my involvement as an MVP and to help guide and support fellow strategists who are pursuing the same goals and growth I focused on throughout the past year.
