Insurance is supposed to be dry. Not a lot of flair, color and charisma involved. Austin bucks that stereotype. His education in communications and creative outlets bring a fresh perspective to the industry, and sales, in general. 

 Listen as this Southern Illinois boy meets even more southern girl and builds a family and a business here in C-U. By day he is a desk jockey selling insurance plans with a philosophy of fishing for clients over the sometimes off putting tactic of hunting for sales. By night he is a rapper, graffiti artist, podcaster and overall creative mind. With three kids and a wife that works with him, life is full, business is good and Austin continues to make a name for himself in the community. Learn  about talking about hard things on hard days, how he wooed his wife as a luchador wrestler, why he got scolded after a frat party, why he calls his wife "baby bundles" and the realization that he doesn't like being told what to do. Autonomy is paramount for Austin, and he has achieved just that.
