Originally from Maryland, Ivan Grant has been married to his wife, Jaclyn, for 20 years, and they are blessed with four wonderful children. He holds an MBA in Finance and brings over two decades of professional experience in senior finance roles to his work. For the last decade, he has focused his expertise exclusively on the nonprofit sector, viewing his role as a form of stewardship to help mission-driven organizations flourish. His experience is deeply rooted in community service, including serving as CFO for a local nonprofit dedicated to youth programs and as Managing Director, Finance for a national workforce development organization.
This professional focus is a direct extension of his personal calling; Ivan is an ordained minister who has faithfully pastored a Jacksonville-based congregation since 2012. This dual vocation provides him with a unique perspective on building resilient organizations that create a lasting and positive community impact. Outside of his professional and pastoral duties, he enjoys reading, learning languages, and rooting for the Jacksonville Jaguars.
