Brian Keys

Get to know Orange County staff... The Personnel File:

Maintenance Technician II

Brian Keys is a relatively recent addition to the Orange County Public Works team. He started around eight (8) months ago, but has already become known for his cheerful attitude and award - worthy smile when answering facilities requests. Brian says he applied to Orange County because he was interested in getting involved in local government. He enjoys the benefits of the job and the steady work it brings, but really appreciates the friendly atmosphere and getting to know the folks he works with.

Mr. Keys may appreciate the steadiness of employment with Orange County, but he ’ s no stranger to excitement. He ’ s the proud owner of a Suzuki GSXR - 1000 motorcycle. Brian described it with a bit more detail. “ It ’ s stretched... with chrome, ” he said with his trademark smile beginning to shine through. Though he hasn ’ t ridden recently, he ’ s preparing to do so again soon. Riding it from the Orange area to Maryland and back is a favorite route of his, usually visiting his grandmother during the trip, which totals around 300 miles. His motor - related interests don ’ t stop there. Brian frequents antique car shows, and has owned several classics himself.

We look forward to seeing Brian continue to help keep Orange County ’ s wheels turning in the future. Thanks Brian!
