Tyler Auker

Owner

Tyler graduated from the University of Florida in 2015 with a degree in Finance, but quickly realized a career in finance wasn’t for him. He was fortunate enough to begin his career in the sales leadership program for the E&J Gallo Winery. Tyler held multiple positions across the state of Florida during the nearly 10 years he worked for Gallo and was able to develop a diverse skillset. From Sales Representative to State Sales Manager within the spirits division, he honed his ability to drive results and foster relationships.

Transitioning to Comfort Keepers, Tyler found his true calling. Here, he is privileged to contribute to the well-being of our community's most vulnerable generation. Tyler's dedication stems from witnessing firsthand the profound impact of compassionate care, as he grew up witnessing the transformative work of his parents, who founded and operated this family business for over two decades. Inspired by their legacy and the opportunity to continue their tradition of excellence, Tyler is committed to upholding our values and making a meaningful difference in the lives of those we serve.
