Hi, I'm Austin.
I love what I do and do what I love with a mind that never stops racing. I am an industrial designer, developer, pattern maker, climber, and biker that catches the early worm only to burn the midnight oil.
I push my designs to be driven by function and use the aesthetic to explain and elaborate. Believing that this is only achievable through testing, I insist on prototyping and testing every product I stand behind.
Between personal passions and projects, I now feel more at home flushing out projects on the road; striving to understand the people these projects are intended for and allowing myself every opportunity to appreciate and test products in the landscapes this brings me through.
