Many software developers do NOT have training or understanding about issues involved in marketing and graphic design. Many graphic designers do NOT have expertise with computer technology.

At Active Lightning, Sally Seaver—who leads each project—has strengths in both graphic design and computer technology. She apprenticed with graphic designers, had over 10 years of experience in marketing communication, and had formal training in art. She also has demonstrated technical expertise, a degree-level computer programming course, and over 20 years of computer experience. Bringing together both creative and technical competencies is a core strength of Active Lightning.

Our technology strategy leads to elegant sustainable solutions

When designing a solution we look for the optimum blend of simplicity and complexity. We want solutions that are easy to use and maintain. These goals are balanced against cost. We strive to deliver optimum value for solutions that fit within the client's budget.
