Asiyah Grant is on disability leave from Scotia Bank, where she was a Relationships Manager. She was in a near fatal car accident on February 1, 2014. It is by the grace of God that she is here today. As a certified Civil Engineer, she also worked for the BVI Ports Authority as the Ports Engineer.
Asiyah is a proud Rotarian and before her accident was slated to be the 2015 secretary of the Rotary Club of Tortola. She has held a few positions as well:
- Sergeant at Arms 2013-2014
- Committee member of Hospitality for District conference Tortola 2013
- Director of Service Projects 2012-2013
- Committee member for production of Grand Affair 2012 (raising $100K for Autism)
- Producer of Jail & Bail fundraiser 2012 (raising $14k for Crime Stoppers BVI
Asiyah received a Bachelors of Science in the field of Civil Engineering from the State University of New York at Buffalo. With that degree she moved (a.k.a drove) all over the United States with the Federal Highway Administration where she worked to install roads, tunnels, and bridges. Her favorite assignment was when she worked in NJ as part of the team to implement the EZ pass system in NYC.
She is a native New Yorker who always wanted to explore the world. She took her first adventure when she went away to college and then a second adventure when she took her first job out of college. They both moved her all over the country. But her latest adventure was to move to the BVI where she got married and decided that the warmer climate worked best for her.
