Paige Pollard serves as a principal at Commonwealth Preservation Group, a preservation consulting firm with a longstanding presence in the Hampton Roads area and neighboring states. Paige is no stranger to the devastating effects flood events can have on individuals, families and businesses: her family ties to Puerto Rico and her work in recent years have laid bare the facts that climate change affects everyone and that more and more people are in need of support in dealing with flood events. Paige believes in the power of collaboration and strives to partner with others in the community, including RISE, to develop innovative strategies to tackle flooding at the property level. Paige is proud to have called Hampton Roads her home for more than 20 years.
