Think MailChimp meets texting meets Taylor Swift making cookies for her super fans.

Currently, Austin consults with executives and entrepreneurs wanting to aggressively grow their businesses and their own capacity to give back. He brings clarity and helps to set direction. Most of his consulting work relates to operations, lean startup methodology, product development, sales & marketing, and culture.

Back in 2010, Austin married a lovely woman named Megan Pearl, and they have two children, a girl named Salem and a boy named Theo. They currently live in Knoxville, Tennessee, near the Great Smoky Mountains.
