Keith is proud to fight for us - his fellow Rhode Islanders.

The son of Bill, a doctor who served in the Vietnam War, and Robin, an educator for more than 30 years, Keith was born at Newport Hospital and raised in Portsmouth.  When Keith was 13, his father died from cancer linked to the use of Agent Orange in Vietnam. After that, his mother raised three teenagers alone with the support of friends and neighbors. From his parents, Keith learned perseverance, the value of public service, and the strength of community.

Keith attended the University of Pennsylvania and earned his law degree with honors from Fordham Law School. Keith and his wife, Rachel, a physician at Brown, have two sons, Elijah and Daniel, who love exploring playgrounds across Rhode Island.

Keith served as a senior leader in the Rhode Island Attorney General’s Office working closely with Attorney General Peter Neronha, where he helped build the state’s Public Protection Bureau, worked to expand access to health care, and stood up to the Trump Administration’s extremism and unconstitutional actions harming our state. Keith has dedicated his career to fighting to make our state stronger, safer, and fairer – for all of us.
