About Keith

  • I started my career at UC Irvine, working in the early academic outreach program, where I provided services for local high school students interested in going to college.
  • As I gained experience in student services, I realized it’s not just important to focus on outreach—we must also ensure support services are working to help students be successful while in school.
  • Transitioning into a college CEO position, I focused on things like allocation of resources, understanding policy, and building facilities to meet students’ needs.
  • I currently work as the president of Compton College, where I serve as a bridge between services, facilities, and faculty to ensure that our students find success now and in the future.
