Scott McKeon
Biography
California
Liberal Arts Major | 2001

As a student at Southern Virginia University, McKeon majored in liberal arts and competed on the Knights baseball team. He was also elected by his fellow students to serve as Student Body President during the 1999-2000 academic year. McKeon and his wife, alumna Rachel [Salmon] McKeon, also met while they were both attending Southern Virginia University.

Since graduating from Southern Virginia University, McKeon has enjoyed notable career success. He is currently the Chief Growth Officer at iPayables—a leading provider of enterprise-grade accounts payable automation solutions—where he is responsible for driving revenue growth for the organization.

Prior to joining iPayables, McKeon served as the Vice President of Business Operations for Spireon where he spearheaded more than $200 million in total revenue growth. Before that, he led business operations Shea Properties where he managed an apartment portfolio valued at more than $800 million.

McKeon began his professional career with Apple REIT Hospitality in Richmond, VA, where he helped manage the acquisition of more than 40 hotels. After earning his bachelor’s degree in liberal arts from Southern Virginia University, he earned a master’s degree in business administration and a master’s degree in real estate development from the University of Southern California. McKeon also previously served two consecutive terms on Southern Virginia University’s Board of Trustees.

Scott and Rachel McKeon are the proud parents of four children. Their oldest daughter, Audrey, recently attended Southern Virginia University for three semesters before embarking on a full-time mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Audrey studied in the liberal arts Core and competed on the Knights women’s soccer team.

“I’m thrilled and honored to serve as alumni president to help launch the official alumni association at Southern Virginia University. I’m excited to play a part in this next phase of growth and progress for the University. It really is a great day to be a Knight.”

Gather. Lift. Launch.
