Eric M. Grant, CVA
Eric Grant does not shy away from new opportunities; "Nothing ventured, nothing gained" is an axiom he lives by. A BA in History from Virginia Wesleyan led to a job at the Peabody Essex Museum in Salem, MA (Eric grew up in Boston) supervising the tour guides for the museum's Historic House program.

Although he applied as a fluke, he was hired as the volunteer coordinator.
