Keith specializes in providing sound advice and expertise to support the success of all sizes of owner-managed businesses, and larger not-for-profit organizations - on tax and government regulation compliance; and adds valuable insight to everything from micro issues to big picture planning, risk management and investment opportunities.

Born and raised in Red Deer, Keith graduated from the University of Alberta in 1980, with a Bachelor of Commerce degree. After articling in Red Deer, and earning his Chartered Accountant designation (in 1985), he gained broad public practice experience in Red Deer and Calgary. He also worked in New Zealand, just as GST was introduced there, and brought that invaluable experience back home to Red Deer when he accepted a position with Pivotal CPA in 1989. He advanced to partner in 2006, and today leads in a number of the activities of the tax group.

A member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Alberta, he continues to deepen his knowledge through professional development, including the completion of the Chartered Professional Accountants’ In-Depth Tax program.

Over the past 20 years, Keith – as an alumni member of both Red Deer College and University of Alberta - has served the community as past Director and Treasurer of the Blackfalds & District Victim Assistance Society, and as past Director and Treasurer of the Piper Creek Optimist Club of Red Deer. Today he connects with other business owners and assists in tackling issues facing business as a Director of the Red Deer & District Chamber of Commerce.

In his spare time, he enjoys travel, in Canada and abroad, sports and physical fitness - particularly swimming, golf, cycling, and skiing.
