The idea behind Net.America originated in 1998, while its founder and CEO, Clare Hines, served as a program manager for NASA, overseeing a major component of NASA's Peer-Review Program. During this time, Ms. Hines applied her technical expertise as chief architect in the design, implementation, and maintenance of NASA's Internet-based Grants Management System (GMS).

Ms. Hines launched the Net.America Corporation in April 2000 with only $10,000 in savings, and under her leadership, the company has grown to more than $6.0M in annual sales. Her entrepreneurial skills have enabled her, over the course of her burgeoning career, to create lucrative opportunities that have increased sales, provided employment for the Washington DC region, and expanded the competitive market of government funded contracts.

Prior to her position at NASA, Ms. Hines also served as a NASA MURED Program Manager, where she was responsible for organizing, staffing, budgeting, directing, planning and controlling a $0.8M/year Peer-Review contract.

Ms. Hines holds a Masters of Science degree in Technology Management from the University of Maryland and a Bachelor of Science degree in International Marketing from Southeastern University. Always seeking to broaden her business knowledge, individual interests, and leadership ability, she has also taken advantage of courses offered through the Tuck School of Business, Executive Education Program and Leadership Maryland, Annapolis, Maryland.
