Earning a degree in chemistry, as well as an M.B.A, Alice valued education and set a high standard for her six younger siblings, who all became successful in science and business. As a chemist, Alice worked at many of the largest companies in food, personal care, and most recently in medical devices. In her spare time, Alice loved to travel the world and ski with her African-American ski club, the Sno-Gophers.”—Chris Latoz, colleague
