AK Web Apps is a small business located in Austin, deep in the heart of Texas. The company continues to evolve over the years starting in 2003 as a Sole Proprietorship with local businesses growing into a Corporation supporting global clients within Fortune 500 companies. Although the client list has grown the primary MISSION of the company has stayed the same: build customer relationships and help make every day business functions more efficient using web-based applications.
The dandelion is so many beautiful things. It's a flower that transforms (my favorite) into a wistful cotton ball. Precious gifts to mothers. Grants wishes when blown. Carries seeds on the wind. Strong, resilient, and surprisingly, a weed. Available for everyone to enjoy.

Ashley Salinas graduated from Southern Methodist University in 2000 earning a BA in Psychology and a BFA in Fine Arts. She started working at the SMU Webmasters Office in 1997 supporting student and organizational websites as well as teaching herself Visual Basic and database architecture. In 2000, during the internet startup boom, she moved to Austin, Texas to begin her web career. After learning the ropes at a few smaller web firms she decided to branch out on her own. In 2003 she started her first company "Ashley Kathleen" and later incorporated in 2011 as AK Web Apps.

We enjoy hearing "my job is so much easier since you created ... for us." Our strength is listening to a basic job function, the frustrations, the current work arounds, the limitations, and then turning around and developing an application that makes the job easier.
Most projects will come with our AK CMS. This is similar to WordPress and allows you to self-service your own pages, navigation, layouts, styles, etc whenever you need. This CMS has the added bonus of being written in-house so features can be added to fit your specific needs.
