Keenan in real life
What keeps you busy outside of work?
My wife, Emily, and I have two kids, who keep us busy — evenings and weekends are spent in the community on soccer or lacrosse fields and basketball courts, and in dance studios. We’re always on the move.
What makes you tick?
What makes me tick is helping others succeed. Throughout my career and personal life, I’ve invested a lot of time in coaching and leadership roles because I genuinely believe in the power of growth and development. I like to say I have a coach’s heart — I’m driven by seeing people reach their potential and achieve more than they thought possible.
Why do you like working at Mercer Advisors?
I love working at Mercer Advisors because I get to help people feel confident about their financial future. It’s rewarding to see the impact we make in clients’ lives, and I’m surrounded by a team that genuinely cares about doing the right thing. Every day brings new challenges and opportunities to learn, and that keeps the work exciting and meaningful.
