Today I bring you a new TalentView I recently had the opportunity to speak with Alex Romero, he is a 34-year-old Oaxaca, Mexico native. His story was very interesting, and I thought sharing it with you. He was raised in Campeche and lived in Ensenada for about 15 years. Alex has been working in Bradenton Florida for the last 2 years and a half as a General manager at a Tilapia Hatchery. In the past, he has worked with Striped Bass and Catfish. Alex Romero chose Aquaculture as a career.

Aquaculture is not only a growing industry that provides food security and employment. Working in aquaculture for a lot of people involved in the industry represents a lifestyle. Aquaculture, even though technology has eased a lot of methods and processes is not a 9 to 5 job. People tend to marry their aquaculture careers to their families and personal aspects because sometimes is not easy for them to keep them separated.
