Decade alert! 🎉

We are so proud to celebrate Software Engineer Dakota Reid for 10 amazing years at Visionary!

What started as an internship in 2015 has grown into a decade of incredible work, from FedEx to countless contract development projects.

Dakota is reliable, dependable, and always goes above and beyond for every client. He is truly a joy to work with and we are so lucky to have him on our team. Here is to you, Dakota! 🙌

This week, Visionary's own Luke Frazee and Dakota Reid made the trip to PHP Tek 2026 in Chicago. Three days of expert sessions, workshops, and some of the best PHP minds in North America all under one roof. 🙌

Luke said it best: "PHP Tek is a great opportunity to learn from other experts in the field and experience the PHP community firsthand at its best."

That's exactly why we keep sending our developers every year. The sessions are great, but it's the community, the conversations, and the fresh perspective our team brings back that make it worth it every time.

PHP Tek 2026: Visionary Heads to Chicago Every year, Visionary sends developers to PHP Tek, the premier PHP conference in North America. This year, Software Engineers Luke Frazee and Dakota Reid made the trip to Chicago.

30 YEARS. 🎉 This month we're celebrating our very own Garritt Grandberg and his three incredible decades at Visionary! Since 1996, Garritt has been the kind of colleague people are lucky to have once in a career, endlessly knowledgeable, always calm under pressure, and somehow always good for a laugh at exactly the right moment. We gathered this week to celebrate him, and we just had to share the love. Congrats, Garritt, Visionary wouldn't be Visionary without you.

When we asked Garritt to reflect on 30 years, he said it best himself: "It feels more like thousands of small moments, solving problems, working through challenges, helping people where I could, and getting to do it alongside a lot of genuinely good people."

And the people around him? They had plenty to say too. From our VP Kelsy Sinnwell: "No matter how busy he is, he always makes time to help and offer thoughtful advice, never once making anyone feel like a burden for asking. He is selfless and genuinely wants everyone around him to succeed." Our founder David Safris put it simply: "There is no way I could have survived personally or professionally without your help."

Thirty years is not a number. It's a legacy. Read all about it on the blog. 💚
