Letter from The President
Greetings Pittsburgh AIHA,
2020 was for sure an interesting year full of mixed emotions, frustrations, and sadness. It was also a year with so much to be grateful for – quality family time, renewed appreciations, and a simpler life.
With 2021 upon us, I want to take the time to thank all our members for the continued support and contributions to our local section. Let’s all wave goodbye to the old and embrace the new year with hope, dreams, and ambition. Wishing you a Happy New Year full of happiness!
Sarmed Shareef, CIH, CSP
President, Pittsburgh AIHA
