a grassroots effort to combine Tukz’s background in safety training with Carrie’s business sense, attention to detail and customer service. Tukz jokingly says, “Carrie is the brains and I am the brawn of the organization.” Tukz has a background in both Aquatic Safety and the in the education industry and they knew that with their combination of talents and abilities they had something unique to offer the community.
