Todd Gardner is a professor of Aquaculture at Carteret Community College in Morehead City, NC, and manages Biota’s NC facility where he raises Gramma dejongi and other aquatic specimens.
His life and career have both been shaped by his passion for marine life and he has written numerous scientific and popular articles about his research and experiences collecting, keeping, and culturing marine organisms.
Todd’s professional background includes work on a National Geographic documentary, commercial aquaculture at C-quest Hatchery in Puerto Rico, and an 11-year term at the Long Island Aquarium where he spent much of his time developing techniques for rearing marine fish larvae. To date, he has raised more than 50 species.
In 2013 Todd received the prestigious Aquarist of the Year Award from the Marine Aquarium Society of North America (MASNA). In his spare time, Todd dives with his son Finn, photographs marine life, runs marathons, and plays in a blues band.
