Career
Keith served as the Scientist-in-Charge (SIC) of the Alaska Volcano Observatory (AVO) from 1994–99.[3] She is one of two women to serve as Alaska SIC, the other one being Michelle Coombs. During her tenure at AVO, she was a mentor to Coombs.[4]
As the SIC, Keith was often in charge of media statements, and as such has often been quoted in the news as an authoritative figure on Alaskan geology.[5]
Keith has also published geologic research on Yellowstone National Park.[6][7]
