Hello Scostauffer,
If your keyboard is not working as expected you may have accidentally set an option that changes how your keyboard operates.
• Choose Apple menu> System Preferences, click Accessibility, click Keyboard, then click Hardware. Make sure Slow Keys is turned off. If Slow Keys is on, you must press and hold a key longer than usual before it’s recognized.
• Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, click Accessibility, click Pointer Control, then click Alternate Control Methods. Make sure Mouse Keys is off.
• Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, click Keyboard, then click Input Sources. Select “Show Input menu in menu bar.” Open the Input menu, then make sure the correct keyboard layout is selected.

Also try resetting the SMC on your Mac. You can see how this is done here:How to reset the SMC of your Mac - Apple Support
