It’s been roughly 15 years since the world was introduced to the internet. Who would’ve thought you could actually have a career developing content for this new medium? We all use our computers on a daily basis, and some of us even excel at using these new media tools to push our agenda forward. We believe we’re one of those groups that excels. You probably know Nativeres Interactive even if you don’t know Nativeres Interactive. If you have viewed the websites of The National Congress of American Indians, Native American Rights Fund, Native American Public Telecommunications, Indian Health Service, HUD or a myriad of other Native American websites, then you’re more than just a little familiar with our work. These websites were developed by Joseph Brown Thunder and his team at Nativeres.

We are a multimedia communications firm. Our mantra is: “Work with the best to be the best to present the best.” We started in 2001 to assist companies and organizations with presenting their missions and stories to their members. We believe that every organization was started for a reason and often times an organization needs help in identifying who their members are and how to present information to them. This is where we step in.

Our team spends half its time in research and development working with the newest technologies to see how they can further the mission of our clients. This means we put significant time and effort into staying on top of trends in multimedia development. Moreover, we work with the organization to understand its internal network and processes, and in a lot of ways we become a true partner with the organization to move its story forward.

We take on the organization’s causes and missions. This approach is rooted in Joseph’s early beginnings where he worked for a health consortium as its primary information specialist, his stints working with film, video, and radio, his hand-coding of early multimedia applications, project managing for major corporations and media campaigns, and finally, starting his own firm where he brought all of these skill sets under one umbrella to assist organizations in presenting their stories.

Joseph believes every job starts and ends with communication. This is the single most important factor of any job or project one takes on. He’s seen numerous times the failure of a project wasn’t the technology or even the organization’s process but rather a lack of communication between client and vendor. Joseph and the team at Nativeres strive to provide excellent customer service through open communication.

We are a team comprised of seasoned professionals and new talent putting our diverse skills to use for the benefit of our clientele and partners.
