My name is Patrice Davis, and I am the founder and CEO of Grants Works, a grant consulting company, and the lead trainer for Grants Works Academy.
I have over 18 years of experience managing or overseeing federal grants for large and small nonprofits and a top research university. I reviewed compliance variables of research grant continuation applications when I was employed as a public health analyst at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and I conducted site monitoring visits.
I managed federal grants and cooperative agreements as a recipient, subrecipient, and pass-through entity, and my work as a federal employee enhances my experience.
Since 2005, I successfully applied for and administered over $200 million in federal, state, and county grant funding from 20+ city, county, state, and federal agencies including the EPA and the U.S. Departments of Energy, Housing & Urban Development, Commerce, Education, Health & Human Services, Interior, Justice, and more.
I provided training on Uniform Guidance (2 CFR 200), HHS’ adoption of Uniform Guidance (45 CFR 75), and managing grant-funded travel.
I am one of approximately 310 Certified Grant Management Specialists in the United States as of 2024 and I am a member of the National Grant Management Association, Grant Professionals Association, and Georgia Grant Professionals Association.
