Prior to joining Cordingley & Parkinson, Keaton worked as a Quantitative Tax Consultant at Ernst & Young (EY), where he consulted some of the world’s largest companies on how to navigate complex, data-intensive tax challenges.

Keaton earned his bachelor’s degree in financial economics with a minor in data science from Brigham Young University – Idaho. During his undergrad, he served as President of the Investment Society, where he led a collaborative project between the Investment Society and the Data Science Society.
