Born on March 28, 1989, in Hollidaysburg, Pennsylvania, and raised in Wexford, he developed a strong appreciation for family, discipline, and the natural world from an early age—values that have guided both his personal and professional pursuits.

Growing up in Western Pennsylvania, Keiser attended North Allegheny High School, where he excelled academically and athletically before graduating in 2007. While football quickly became one of his greatest passions, he remained equally committed to education and personal development. He later attended Stanford University, earning his degree in 2012 while competing for the Cardinal during one of the most successful periods in the program’s history.
