Austin made an immediate positive impact when joining the team as the Regional Vice President for EHI in Central NC. His ability to lead a team focused on the four core areas (growth, profitability, employee development, and customer service) of our business was the strongest I have witnessed in years. Austin's genuine character allowed him to build a culture that focused on his vision of teamwork to achieve our goals. Austin’s vision allows him to pull together the necessary resources to work collaboratively to achieve the desired outcome. His competiveness is a driving force to his success. Austin's approach, whether interacting with business partners or employees, is one of confidence, humility, and sincerity. Austin faces situations head on with the ability to navigate the most difficult and challenging situations with ease. His communication is open, direct, and easily understood with an approachable presence. Austin has the ability to find common ground with those he is engaging, paving the way to cultivating the beginning of a professional relationship/partnership. He drives his team to lead by his example with integrity, accountability, flexibility, and loyalty. Over the course of my 18 year career, it would be hard pressed for me to classify another person of Austin’s caliber.

Austin is the epitome of a class act. Austin leads by example and knows how to motivate his team in a way that produces a consistent over achievement of results. He cultivates his team through coaching and leadership so he has a succession plan and his team have a career path. Austin is selfless and has a tireless work ethic. All while balancing a great home life. It would be my honor to work with Austin again in any capacity.
