Ms. Silard is the president and CEO of Stamford Health, where she has led significant growth, strategic partnerships and facility advancements. She oversaw the on-time, under-budget completion of the $450 million Stamford Hospital on the Bennett Medical Center campus, making it the first hospital in the state to be certified for leadership in energy and environmental design. She played a key role in establishing partnerships with the New York City-based Hospital for Special Surgery, Boston-based Dana-Farber Brigham Cancer Center and Columbia University Irving Medical Center in New York City. Ms. Silard also guided Stamford Health’s pandemic response, collaborating with community organizations and the military to create a regional alternative care site. She has since led major projects, including the renovation of the Whittingham Pavilion for women’s and children’s services and the creation of a strategic plan for behavioral health. She serves on the board of directors for AdvanceCT, the governor’s workforce council, and the Greater New York Hospital Association, and is a member of the executive committee of the Connecticut Hospital Association.
