About
Grant A. Hewitt is an experienced and effective leader with a proven record of managing government departments, leading in public policy and building national campaigns across the country.
As Chief of Staff of the Nevada Treasurer’s Office, Grant oversees the office staff, budget and legislative priorities. He was instrumental in updating the State’s investment program to increase returns, managed the brand update and first mass-market advertising campaign promoting a culture of saving for college in Nevada, and accelerated the timeline for unclaimed property claims.
When the Nevada Legislature thrust the newly created Education Savings Accounts program into the purview of the Nevada Treasurer, Grant stepped up to develop the initial regulations, program structure and processes as well as advocate for Nevada families trying to utilize the program. After representing the Treasurer’s Office through the landmark court ruling establishing the constitutionality of the Nevada ESA program, Grant has become a national leader on the creation and implementation of ESA programs.
Prior to his role in the Nevada Treasurer’s Office, Grant has worked for an assortment of political campaigns across the country, including a time with the Republican Party of Texas, before joining the Bush-Cheney campaign. Grant moved to Nevada in 2006 to serve as Deputy Campaign Manager for Governor Jim Gibbons prior to serving as Co-Executive Director of the Nevada Republican Party. Grant also served as Director of Government Affairs and Community Relations for Black Gaming in Mesquite.
In 2010, he served as Campaign Manager of Dr. Joe Heck’s successful run to represent Nevada’s third congressional district. After the election, Grant continued his role with Congressman Heck, acting as Transition/District Director.
In 2014 Grant managed one of the highest profile state senate campaigns in the country, defeating the incumbent to change the majority party.
