Hi Keith,

My name is Grace and I am new to the group.  I would be very
interested in joining in on the workshop.  I am currently still in
school to be a massage therapist.  When I graduate, I am planning on
starting my own massage business, looking into opening a health spa.
I graduate in August and I am beginning to take some business now
through SCORE of San Jose.

Please keep me updated on your plans.

Grace Feng
