Our Founders

Arthur K. O'Keefe, Jr.—known to friends and clients as Kayo—founded The O'Keefe Group after graduating from The University of Texas in 1970 with a degree in Marketing.

For over 50 years, he guided clients with one core belief: financial and insurance planning should truly serve the client. Kayo focused on clarity, trust, and straightforward solutions that helped families make confident decisions. His work was strengthened by the partnership of his wife, Cam, who often supported clients' spouses in understanding and feeling secure in their plans.

Kayo built a reputation for practical, client-first guidance—never unnecessary complexity. In honor of that legacy, we continue this mission under a new name: O'Keefe Solutions. The name reflects what Kayo spent a lifetime providing: solutions that protect families and simplify important financial choices.

Today, we carry his commitment forward as we help individuals, families, and retirees plan wisely, safeguard what matters most, and look to the future with confidence.

Because with the right solutions, you can live more—and worry less.
