As a high school senior, Grant won the 2015 regional competition of the American Indian Science and Engineering Society for his work measuring the ecological impact of a Mdewakanton village on Bde Maka Ska. In 2023, Grant serves as co-president of the Native American Law Students Association at Georgetown University, where he continues to do outstanding work. 


In Mni Sóta Makoce (Minnesota), Indigenous people have lived, worked, and played near Ȟaȟa Wakpadaŋ (Bassett Creek) for thousands of years. Through an oral history project, 15 Indigenous people share how they experience the watershed as part of their historic and contemporary cultures. These interviews were conducted by Dr. Kasey Keeler with support from Valley Community Presbyterian Church (VCPC) and partners.
