“Tremendous progress has been made in the last several years to strengthen Lewis & Clark’s academic programs and enhance the student experience,” said Hayes. “I’m excited to work with my fellow board members and President Robin Holmes-Sullivan to build on the momentum toward L&C’s further growth and success.”
Hayes founded Hue Noir, a cosmetic manufacturing company based in Beaverton, Oregon, in 2009. The company specializes in the formulation and development of cosmetic products designed specifically for women of color.
On the Lewis & Clark board, Hayes has previously served as first vice chair; chair of the Academic Affairs Committee; chair of the Campus Life Committee; and, most recently, cochair of the Presidential Search Committee. Hayes graduated from Lewis & Clark with a BS in biology and served on the Board of Alumni from June 2005 to June 2011. She holds an MBA from the University of Phoenix.
