Project 180° North - FACF was busy teaching air how to behave between Mach .3 and Mach 5 when the universe, apparently unimpressed, slipped something far stranger onto the bench.
It turns out the universe hides its most disorienting discoveries inside the work you were already doing.

Roland Tomforde was recently selected to serve as a board member of FACF Technology Concepts, Inc. (FACF), bringing with him a long track record of operational leadership across complex, regulated, and technology-enabled financial services organizations. His appointment reflects a career built around stabilizing and transforming businesses operating within larger corporate structures, particularly during periods of growth, restructuring, and integration.
Roland is widely described as a transformative operational leader with strong judgment, restraint, and the ability to manage diverse, high-performing teams. His background spans senior executive roles where he has acted as both a change agent and a stabilizing force—balancing innovation and modernization with the demands of operational continuity. Across his career, he has consistently focused on improving efficiency, strengthening organizational alignment, and enabling scalable growth through better systems and processes.
Currently, he serves as President and previously Chief Operating Officer of Donlin, Recano & Company, Inc., an operating business within Equiniti, where he oversees all operational, financial, and technology functions. In that role, he led a significant multi-year transformation that modernized core infrastructure, digitized traditionally paper-heavy workflows, and improved both revenue and EBITDA performance while reducing headcount. Earlier in his career, he held senior leadership roles at Taylor Rafferty and D.F. King & Co., where he managed global investor relations and financial communications businesses, led mergers and acquisitions integration efforts, and drove rapid operational turnarounds.
His broader professional experience includes service as a commissioned officer in the United States Marine Corps, where he held leadership roles in logistics, intelligence, and combat operations. That foundation, combined with advanced academic training from Yale University and Columbia University’s School of International and Public Affairs, has shaped his approach to strategic planning, risk management, and organizational leadership. Across both public and private sector roles, Roland has developed deep expertise in operational integration, financial management, and technology-enabled transformation—skills that align closely with the strategic direction of FACF.
