And I believe that our established base of top-tier customers and the technology-driven markets we serve offer outstanding opportunities for further growth and expansion. My immediate priority is to ensure this leadership transition is as seamless as possible for our customers.

We recently celebrated a noteworthy milestone—Intervala’s ninth anniversary—with a beautiful gala for our employees! The evening was filled with glitz, glamour and gratitude as we embraced a Hollywood red-carpet theme to applaud the creativity, dedication and incredible teamwork that drive our success.

As a nod to the gala’s theme, we organized a fundraiser to support the American Red Cross and its critical on-the-ground efforts to help those affected by the devastating wildfires in Southern California. Thanks to the generosity of our team and a company match, we are proud to help those in need in this iconic part of the country.

Thank you to everyone who made this celebration unforgettable! This milestone is a testament to the amazing people who make our company thrive. Here’s to all we’ve accomplished together over the past nine years and to continued success, collaboration and innovation in the years ahead!

Congratulations to the most recent graduates of our electronics technician training program! Today we honored Intervala employees Ashley Gimigliano, Hannah Grigg, Kelly Hardik, Shawn Harrold, Michael Kempff, Brittany Riggleman, Sean Scantland and Kevin Sulava for completing the first course of a three-level program toward earning their technician certificates. Cheers as well to Angelina McBeth and Richard Stoner who completed the second course of the curriculum!

The program, which Intervala developed in coordination with Westmoreland County Community College, is designed to help our current technicians take their skills to the next level and maintain the high levels of quality and reliability we need on our production floor.

During a ceremony and reception at our Mount Pleasant, Pa., facility, the students received certificates of course completion and were awarded three college credits they can transfer into any program at Westmoreland’s Advanced Technology Center. We congratulate them for their hard work, dedication to learning and the achievement of an important step in their careers!

Additional level-one and level-two courses of this program will start next week, with a level-three course beginning in the fall.

Thanks to Talent Acquisition Specialist Heather Gwynn, who coordinates the training program with the college, and to Director of Engineering Chris Samios and Test Engineer Supervisor Alex Reasinger, who developed the course curriculum and lead all class instruction. The program would not have been possible without these employees’ extraordinary efforts.

Our big-hearted employees once again joined forces to support two annual Christmas collections: the Salvation Army Angel Tree in Mount Pleasant, Pa., and Toys for Tots in Manchester, N.H. Their generosity and kindness will make the holidays a little brighter for our communities’ children and families in need. Thank you to everyone who participated and helped spread holiday cheer, one gift at a time!

We were excited to welcome members of the Monessen Middle School STEM Club to our Mount Pleasant, Pa., manufacturing facility this week. The students are participating in the “What’s So Cool About Manufacturing?” video contest.

The bright young minds toured our facility, met with our team, and got a firsthand look at our daily operations and rewarding careers in manufacturing. They have taken what they learned back to brainstorm and develop their concept before returning to shoot footage for their video. Catalyst Connection created the student video program to help give young people a new perspective on the exciting career opportunities that exist now in manufacturing.

We’re looking forward to how the students capture the story of what they think is cool about manufacturing. Best of luck, Monessen! We can’t wait for your next visit!
