Nava Anne Grant received a B.A. with Highest Distinction from the University of Virginia. After college, she developed the idea for a material culture exhibition featuring modern and contemporary Judaica. The exhibition traveled to five venues and received press coverage from a variety of news outlets. She also published peer-reviewed academic research about the objects in the collection. Nava later earned her M.A. in Religion & Visual Arts, with an additional focus in Hebrew language, from Yale Divinity School. Her work at Yale was supported by a variety of grant funding, including a Department of Education FLAS Fellowship, a YDS Endowed Scholarship, and the William and Miriam Horowitz and David and Iris Fischer Judaica Project Funds.

Nava has worked in a variety of roles in communications and the arts. Her coaching practice organically arose as she began working privately with her colleagues on their writing and other creative pursuits. Nava believes that creative challenges often arise not due to the projects themselves but rather from more deeply-seated concerns. She really enjoys rooting out those problems with her clients by using a variety of fun tools. Nava’s practice is flexible and now helps a variety of clients in very divergent industries. She is loving this new chapter of integrating so many of her interests in one job.
