Hope this message finds you doing very well. It has been a while since we met last time! How are you doing? I see you now work for a whole different set of organizations now, congratulations on the new development. I am just touching base, also wondering if you could introduce me to Warren Michelow as I am seeking a career in data science and he works as a data scientist at Boeing Canada. It would be a great networking opportunity for me. Thank you so much for your time.

Warmest regards,

Annie Qu

Those experiences taught me much about your character and your professionalism, well beyond the subject matter knowledge even.對合作過的收信人的評價贊揚 Would love to have coffee with you sometimes if you have 20 minutes. I can drop by?順便到訪 your main office (OrionHealth?) at a time that works better for you.
