Austin is the Business Services Librarian. His long-time love and volunteer work for libraries inspired him to pursue librarianship as a career to serve people and their information needs. Hailing from Fayetteville, NC, Austin loves seeing the ways entrepreneurs and small businesses positively affect local communities and the state of North Carolina as a whole. Outside of the library, you can find him reading, playing video games, watching soccer, and taking walks outside.
