Austin Michael
Austin Michael loves life! Food, friends, travel, and every experience he can pack in help keep his personality bubbly. He’s old enough to have an adult son, but young enough to be mischievous.
Austin is an avid cyclist (a typical ride is about 15 to 30 miles) and can often be heard boasting about all of the outdoor activities and trails that Lincoln has available to families.
In his home time, you‘ll often find Austin experimenting with recipes (big time foodie), making candles (often with unique home- made molds), fawning over his wonderful wife, and hanging out with their pet guinea pigs.
