Todd helped the County of Orange become the first county in the nation to receive the TsunamiReady destination.

The City of Seal Beach recruited Todd to develop its emergency management program. Todd responded to the Salon Meritage shooting, the worst mass murder in the history of Orange County. The lessons learned after the event highlighted the role of emergency managers during these types of events. Todd left Seal Beach and moved to emergency management in higher education.

I am passionate about emergency management and what it can do for our communities. I love to teach and engage with the members of the audience. As a professor, I learn as much from my students as I teach. As a profession, we are collaborative by design, I bring that practice to my lectures. I am interactive, engaging, and collaborative, and passionate about how to make our profession better to serve our communities.
