RICK POLLARD has been promoted to director of business development at M.A. Polce Consulting, Inc., a technology and cybersecurity-services provider with offices in Rome and Syracuse.

In his new role, he will lead the business-development efforts for M.A. Polce Consulting across all industries the firm serves. Before arriving at M.A. Polce, he forged a 25-year career in public education, the latter half of which he spent in a senior-management role as the assistant director of the Central New York Regional Information Center (CNYRIC), near Syracuse. While at CNYRIC, Pollard oversaw IT operations, led strategic-service planning, and worked closely with area school-district leaders to build cost-effective technology solutions. He completed his bachelor’s degree at the University of Rochester and holds a master’s degree and a certificate of advanced study from SUNY Oswego.
