Career

Whitecaps FC 2

Gardner signed with Whitecaps FC 2 on August 26, 2015.[1] Gardner, along with fellow Whitecaps Academy products Matthew Baldisimo and Kadin Chung were praised during the club's USL playoff run in the 2016 USL season.[2] In December 2016, Whitecaps FC 2 announced that Gardner would return to the club for the 2017 season.[3] He played three seasons with Whitecaps FC 2 before the club ceased operations after the 2017 season.[4] Rather than sign a USL deal with the Whitecaps new affiliate, Fresno FC, Gardner elected to evaluate playing opportunities in college.[5]

TSS FC Rovers

After three seasons with Whitecaps FC 2, Gardner signed with TSS FC Rovers of the Premier Development League for the 2018 season.[6]

International

He qualifies to play for Canada, where he and his father were born, or Indonesia, where his mother was born.[7]
