A senior from Bronx Science, Keir has been involved in Congressional Debate for the past four years. As President of the Bronx Science Speech & Debate team—the #1 ranked program in the United States for the past decade—he's competed and coached at every level of Congress. His proudest achievements include placing 1st at Blake, 2nd at UPenn, 4th at Glenbrooks, 4th at the Barkley Forum, 6th at Catholic Nationals, and becoming a 2025 TOC Finalist with 16 career bids.
Keir thinks "Congressional Debate is all about being the perfect politician" and emphasizes mixing serious advocacy with structured argumentation. As Bronx Science's premier introduction writer, he believes the best improvement comes from emulating top speakers and using real-world examples. His pedagogical approach teaches students to argue strategically with realistic thinking and audience persuasion as core elements.
Outside debate, Keir enjoys playing guitar, gym sessions, basketball, and biking around New York City.
