Keith joined Autism Speaks in 2021 after a 30-year career at global financial institutions like Goldman Sachs and Deutsche Bank. He now leverages that financial expertise to lead the strategic vision for the autism community, helping families navigate the complex intersection of healthcare, education, and long-term financial security. We discuss the financial "double hit" for caregivers, the rising costs of therapy, and the critical steps needed to ensure your loved ones are protected for a lifetime.
