Alice Tylutki

With a diverse background from managing A's Plus, my own small business, to teaching swimming safety and skills at the YMCA, I excel in both entrepreneurial and educational roles. My ability to work with animals and children reflects a commitment to being kind and gentle. In my free time I enjoy spending time in the outdoors, baking, art, and volunteering.
