Keyser Santana

Global Security Strategy and Business Execution Leader
Pratt & Whitney

Keyser Santana is an accomplished scholar, entrepreneur and thought leader with a touch of diplomacy. After nearly two decades of service in the United States military, she recognized the essential role of diversity, equity and inclusion in achieving success. Too often, the narratives of marginalized communities are overshadowed by their differences rather than their merit. Santana’s mission is to support these communities by helping individuals and organizations appreciate the power of diverse voices and cultural perspectives, fostering transformational leadership.

As a global security strategy and business execution leader at Pratt & Whitney, Santana leverages her extensive background in international political economies, intelligence and national security to drive the company’s growth and innovation across its diverse operational landscapes.

“I strive not just to exist among others, but to actively listen, understand and evolve my perspective for the betterment of humanity.” – Keyser Santana
