Tina Marie Crouse
Founder, VP - Communications & Public Relations
Secretary of the Board
Tina has enjoyed a rewarding career in the personal wellness and health industry, which allowed her to grow not only as a person, but to build strong business relationships. Her passion for helping people lead her to pursue a degree in psychology in Tampa, Florida. Internships were a major part of the curriculum, which gave Tina the opportunity to help under privileged children and the elderly giving her true fulfillment in her life. While working toward her degree, Tina met her future husband Thomas, and decided to join him in his passion for the oceans as a professional yacht crew. Working aboard private vessels and cruising some of the most beautiful waters in the world entertained an exciting lifestyle, as well as an education on the effects we are causing on our planet through pollution and consumer waste. The day-to-day routine aboard the ship gave Tina a close up look into the need for environmentally safe products and practices not only at sea, but also in our lives in general. Tina brings pride and hope to Green Ocean, knowing that with our philosophies and innovative products, we will make a difference in the world.
