My "Why Keyser"

I was so excited when I learned of this firm and read Jonathan’s book, that I chose Keyser because their culture reflects my belief system. Although I am hard pressed to single out any one of the 15 core principals, because they are so intertwined, I fully believe you must selflessly serve others and give first and then you will be taken care of.
