Risha D. Grant

Risha has accomplished a lot at a young age; but she says her greatest accomplishment is beginning Oklahoma’s first diversity communications firm and receiving approval from former Gov. Brad Henry to develop Oklahoma’s first diversity and inclusion plan that is designed to help the state reap economic benefits and improve its perception nationally. Risha offers this advice to those who hope to achieve success: “Success is a planned event. You put together your plan for how you can achieve your definition of success and then you work that plan in a habitual way. There is no hard and fast way to achieve success. It doesn’t choose whom it will bless with its presence. Anybody can achieve it who really wants it.”
