Sean Beaton

Sean Beaton proudly earned his Master's Degree with distinction from Keller Graduate School of Management in 2020, during the challenging year of COVID-19. He achieved this milestone while working in his first career in the logistics and transportation sector. After retiring from that career in 2022, he dedicated himself full-time to his passion for tax accounting, having worked in both logistics and part-time in tax accounting and finance since 2016.

He has been with Key Group Management, Inc. since the winter of 2021 and serves as tax manager. The Internal Revenue Service has licensed him as an Enrolled Agent, requiring him to demonstrate competence in taxation matters before being granted the ability to represent taxpayers before the IRS. Additionally, he is recognized by the National Association of State Boards of Accountancy and the Arizona Board of Accountancy as a National and Jurisdictional CPA Candidate. He has fulfilled the Master’s level requirement of 150 credit hours of education and 2,000 hours of experience. To attain full licensure, Sean needs to complete the final requirement, which is to demonstrate his skills on the Uniform CPA Examination.

Sean resides in Chandler and has an adult son and daughter. In his spare time, he enjoys playing drums in a local band and visiting his children in Texas and California. Sean is not registered with CFGS.
