in membership, in representation with our legislators and regulators, and the consumer market,” Lasher said.
According to Sabeena Hickman, PHTA’s president and CEO, Lasher will be a great asset to the Association, because his experience and goals align with those of both PHTA and CPSA.
Furthermore, promoting and protecting the pool and spa industry by monitoring the legislation and regulations of California is particularly important because so much starts there, and then often other states follow suit.
“We really rely on our engaged leadership and the CPSA has a phenomenal board to inform us about the issues and challenges that the industry faces. Mike brings a tremendous amount of experience to the table and is all about growing the membership base in California through delivering value through our products and services. We’re really excited to have him as part of our team,” Hickman said.
