Experience

Whether it is building an oversized dog house or torquing down a large motor to a human-powered quadricycle, Austin enjoys a great home-related challenge. As a writer, Austin has covered many DIY and business topics for a variety of publications like Study.com, The Game of Nerds, Deep Nerd magazine, WikiHow, and authored his own communication book, The Public Speaking Apocalypse. Splitting his time between teaching and writing, he likes to focus on helping others express themselves in whatever medium they choose.
