Austin brings energy, excitement, the occasional joke, and his own passions to his facilitation… we would gladly welcome Austin back.”

  • "From start to finish Austin was very pleasant to work with. From our first conversation I could tell he truly has a passion for what he does and his main goal is to help communities improve… Austin went the extra mile to customize his program 100% to our campus and its needs… I am truly thankful for Austin, as I feel he was what our community needed to get back up and running."
