Austin grew up in a small town in Wisconsin called Winneconne, near Green Bay (Go Packers). He then went on to the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point to earn his bachelor’s degree in Health Promotion & Wellness - all while playing collegiate basketball for 4 years. During his time as an athlete, he underwent numerous injuries and gained an appreciation and desire to learn more about the body.

​

This led Austin to move across the country to AZ for PT school at Franklin Pierce University in Goodyear, AZ. Austin’s three-year journey in Arizona gave him the opportunity to experience two amazing clinical rotations: Cleveland Indians in Goodyear, AZ and Champion Physical Therapy and Performance in Boston, MA where he learned from well-known Physical Therapist, Mike Reinold. These experiences led Austin to accepting a position with Next Era Physical Therapy in April 2020.

​

When Austin isn’t at work, you can find him hiking, hitting the links, enjoying family time, playing with his 6-year-old twin niece and nephew, hanging with his wife, Kelly, discovering new breweries and restaurants, and playing any sport of game that involves a competition. He is very excited to be a part of this awesome team and community!
