Ok so yesterday I tried flashing a kernel and my phone got stuck in recovery mode. I was able to bring it back with a dedoxed stock rom using odin. But all the files that were on the sd card I can't find them. It still shows that its still taking up space but there nit showing up on the phone.

Got my Nexus Thursday so rooted and flashed recovery (twrp) Friday and did a nandroid in prep to flash aosp ROM but when I went looking for the file I noticed its in /data/media/tarp/backups as opposed to /sdcard/tarp/backups. Is there a way to change the directory? I created the backups folder under the trwrp on the sdcard but the backup didn't save there where I did a 2nd nandroid as a test. Do I need to fix permissions or anything?

/sdcard is a link to /data/media. They are three same file.
Just make sure you use the latest version in TWRP as it properly handles the changes in directories introduced in 4.2.

Cool. I downloaded the image from the twrp site and installed via adb so it should be correct. I guess I can install Goo Manager and make sure its up to date. I was concerned that if I wipe /data before a restore that I'll delete the nandroid.

Note that in TWRP a factory reset will format /data EXCLUDING /data/media. This means it won't wipe your /sdcard.

What do you mean by reset?
Basically you have 3 options
1- Format data in cwm
This will keep your current rom but wipe all user data - it will be like you have just flashed rom
2- flash different custom rom
in cwm format system data and cache
mount system data and cache
flash rom zip
note some roms require certain kernels to boot
3- Flash stock rom via odin
wipes all data and returns phone to stock ie first time you switched it on
