Vice President

Alyssa Kent received a Bachelors of Architecture from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in 2005.  She has spent her career in Architecture and Real Estate Development roles for major residential and multi-use projects in the tri-state region, initially as a Project Architect and most recently as the Director of Design and Sustainability for an integrated real estate development firm.  In 2016 she was named Emerging Architect of the Year by the Connecticut AIA..  She previously sat on the board of Under One Roof, an intergenerational care facility in Norwalk, CT.  Alyssa currently is the co-chair of the NICU Family advisory council at Yale and was formerly the chair of the CT March of Dimes Family Teams. She and her family founded Go Ginny Go in 2012 to raise prematurity awareness and financially support the NICU parking fund at Yale and prematurity research through the March of Dimes.

Alyssa resides in Fairfield, CT with her husband, Heath, and children, Virginia, Hank and Norah.  All three of her children spent time in the NICU at Yale, but it was her daughter’s 124 day stay in 2011 that made her passionate about prematurity awareness and support.
