Hey there!

I'm Erin Hayes.

I’m an Urban Planner and Designer based in Brooklyn, NY. I’m originally from Richmond, VA, and recently graduated from VCU with my BS in Urban Studies/Planning and a minor in Environmental Studies.

In partnering with the James River Park System and community partners to develop ecological restoration projects, I experienced the power that environmental recovery has on the community. This inspired me to combine my passions for the environment and design by joining VCU Arts' mOb studio and volunteering on projects with Storefront. Eager to extend sustainable, resilient design throughout the City of Richmond, I joined Storefront's team and assisted in their design, education, and engagement processes.

Since, I have moved to Brooklyn, NY, and am looking to diversify my experience in the field.

When I'm not working, I enjoy traveling, cooking, and exploring the arts.
