Hernandez joined the Nordstrom Board of Directors in 1997. He was named Lead Director in August 2000, and he served in that position for over five years before serving as chairman and presiding director from May 2006 through May 2016.

"As Rick moves to focus on his other personal and professional pursuits, we want to thank him for his 20 years of service as one of our most valued and longest-term Board members," said Blake Nordstrom, co-president of Nordstrom. "We are so fortunate to have been the beneficiary of his leadership and guidance that have supported our efforts to provide customers with the best possible shopping experience and helped our company grow from $4.8 billion in sales when he joined us to $14.1 billion in sales through fiscal year 2015."

Outside of Nordstrom, the Harvard University graduate is the CEO, President and Chairman of Inter-Con Security Systems, a position he has held since 1988, and he is a Co-founder and Principal Partner of Interspan Communications. Hernandez is also a director of Wells Fargo and McDonald’s.
