Your Team

Although it is possible for one person to wear many hats, we believe a team approach can offer you the best in capabilities, experience, expertise and results.

Sumner M. Davenport & Associates, LLC is a team of professionals and specialists working together to deliver Web Accessibility education, training and services. Your team can work with you to design a website with accessibility baked in from the start or remediate one that needs help. Each team member brings specialized skills to the table so you get the best we can offer.
