Hi Beth,

Since recently joining WISE SF I have benefited both personally and professionally from my membership. The events and programs provide opportunities to learn from and interact with industry leaders, and to network with fellow members. The organization also offers resources for professional development, such as career coaching, and the upcoming mentoring program. I have found the women of WISE SF to be smart, inspiring and fun! I look forward to my membership in the years to come.

Subject: Your awesome event

Hi there Beth,
Please forgive me for being remiss in writing to let you know how much I enjoyed the Media/blog  event @ the Kabuki Hotel on March 31st. I have to say, it really made every single person in the room feel like we really needed to get onboard! From the start of the evening, you were so charming and lovely, so comfortable speaking to the group, as if you were speaking to a friend. You put everyone at ease, and then Zennie was equally funny and charming, but in a different way. It was nice to have a male moderator with a panel of  
women. It was obvious that they all not only felt comfortable with him, but respected him. The panel were so fascinating! It really made me, and I'm sure most of the others in the room feel like we need to  
get with the program! There was so much good advice, contact information, expertise, and human connection to the subject of media and blogs....it can be daunting, and I think it took alot of the pain of not knowing out of it. I'm not so sure I need to know or want to know that much about people's private lives, but it was so informative.

I hope that you'll continue to present such scintillating  
conversation and allow us to push our boundaries with the new new.

Many thanks and will look forward to more with interest.
xxx,
Vanessa
