Grant hails from smalltown Oklahoma where hunting and fishing became his first love of the outdoors. Growing up making summer trips to visit his brother in Twin Lakes Colorado introduced him to the world of mountains and swift current rivers. in 2021, Grant began his career as a river guide in Salida Colorado on the Arkansas river. Since then Grant has spent the better part of the past five years chasing rivers across the US and South America. When off the river Grant likes to spend his time practicing archery, playing basketball and hanging around campfires with his fellow river rats. Grant will be joining Cascade in 2026 for his first season in the Whitewater State!
