Meet our founders -

Cindy Svec - President & Creative Director: Cindy began her career as a freelance graphic artist and publication designer in the Boston area 20 years ago. In 1994, she founded the first incarnation of RAE, then known as Resource Access Exchange. Her goal was to build a network of services for non-profit organizations providing corporate identity development, electronic design, and desktop publishing. She broadened her skill base to include Website design and development as part of building and promoting RAE. In 1996, she relocated to the Atlanta area and re-incorporated RAE in Georgia as Relevant Arts Enterprises, changing the company’s focus to emphasize Internet-based services and broadening its client base beyond non-profits to businesses and other organizational concerns.; Cindy’s firm grounding in traditional design and print marketing is used to provide RAE’s clients with an integrated approach when getting into new media such as the Web. One of RAE’s primary concerns in developing Internet services and Websites is to insure that they are closely linked with a client’s current marketing materials, while taking advantage of the opportunities unique to new media.; Cindy has authored materials for several publications including "Effective Web Design" published by Sybex books.
John Lock - Technology Director: After a successful 28-year career with the Coca-Cola Company in Atlanta, John joined RAE in 1997 when it was incorporated in Georgia. At Coca-Cola, John served in a variety of technology positions ranging from data center operations to technical consulting to software design and integration. His positions enabled him to play a critical role in Coca-Cola’s technology planning and direction.; Throughout John’s career, he has been required to balance the lure of “high tech” with the practicalities of implementation in a multi-national corporation. This broad perspective has been brought to bear at RAE in providing solutions that satisfy client requirements while balancing appropriate technology with cost and risk factors. One of RAE’s strengths is delivering solutions that are compatible with a wide-variety of hardware platforms, operating systems, and application software. John provides the direction and infrastructure that enables RAE to provide innovative solutions grounded in proven technology.; John is also a co-founder of the HTML Writers Guild, at the time the largest professional organization of web developers in the world with over 117,000 members in 150 countries.
