Adapt USA (now part of Pare & Co) announced on June 11, 2024, that Nick Pizzo had earned Contentful’s Certified Professional credential.
What It Was Part Of
The certification was not a one-off. A month later Adapt said it was approaching 15 Contentful Certified Professionals across its US, Lithuanian and Danish teams, and in April 2025 the agency reached Contentful’s Gold tier — a level Contentful awards partly on the strength of exactly that bench.
An individual credential is a small thing on its own. Fifteen of them in a year is a practice deciding what it intends to be good at.
Where It Went
Nick Pizzo is now a Technical Lead at Pare. The Contentful practice he certified into came to us with the acquisition of Adapt USA in December 2025, and it is the practice behind the headless and composable content work today.
