Biographical Information and Experience


Nancy Hemenway

My career is one of advocacy in special education and the healthcare industry in person, and online. For the past two decades, I provided online education, through creating content and providing advocacy and information to those who suffer, mostly in silence, with infertility and pregnancy loss issues. In my off time, I also coach parents of children with disabilities supporting, teaching, coaching and training them to support their efforts navigating the special education process in public schools.

As the mother of two miracle children myself: "I have the best of all worlds; a child who grew under my heart after seven years of infertility and four pregnancy losses and a child who grew in my heart through the miracle of international adoption." My youngest daughter's adoption story is chronicled from the perspective of my then 5-year-old in a picture book I wrote and illustrated called, "Before There was You"

It was my personal struggles that impassioned me to leave a successful teaching career to help others by harnessing the power of the Internet and the Web. I saw the World Wide Web as the perfect venue to provide vetted information with attribution of industry professionals. As a founder of INCIID, Inc., I was a pioneer in the creation of virtual online communities. INCIID, Inc. was the first online infertility nonprofit support organization established on the World Wide Web.

Experience

As content creator, I continue to develop e-learning activities to enhance the client mission working with subject matter experts (SME) throughout the US and on occasion overseas to identify specific needs, set goals and then accomplish and disseminate appropriate delivery of information. My experience includes storyboarding, scripting, writing for audio and video and editing using a variety of software tools. My passion is visualizing and creating graphic and visual representations of a client's mission and building a finished product; all the while always mindful of using best practice in designing content for benefit of the learner.

Using software and industry standards such as Articulate Storyline and Captivate, this designer excells at building products that meet and exceed client goals. I have experience in creating supporting materials such as audio / video production, including post production, job aids, brochures and flyers. My mission is to continue providing consumers with the best information and tools they need to make life better. Speaking to professionals as part of medical seminars, webinars, presentations and one-on-one meetings across the country and internationally is an adventure.

Family

I live in Northern Virginia with my husband, David and my two daughters, a Golden Retriever service dog, a retired service dog, a Maine Coon mix kitty and a therapy horse; all of which keep life entertaining and very interesting
