RAC Carroll is the SVP/COO of Ellis & Associates, an international aquatic safety and risk management consulting firm dedicated to the prevention and elimination of drowning. RAC, as he is known to everyone (including his Mom), manages the day-to-day operations of the consulting and risk management programs.  

In this episode, RAC tells the fascinating story of how he literally grew up in industry and how one phone call changed the trajectory of his career and life forever.  RAC also discusses the lifeguard sub-culture, how it was created and what best practices and lessons we can take away from the process.  

To contact RAC: richard.carroll@jellis.com
