Ms. Owen,
I am reaching out to you on behalf of the Systems Testing Excellence Program (STEP) at the University of Memphis (http://www.memphis.edu/step/). STEP has been a leading systems testing program working with national level corporations and organizations including FedEx, the DOD, and the Malaysian government for 10 years. Our director, Dr. Robin Poston, recently read your article on the 16 Best Software Quality and Testing Conferences and would like to inquire if you would be interested in helping us promote our 10th Annual Systems Testing Excellence Conference. Please reach out to me and I can help arrange any information or interviews you may require.
