Aloha! My name is Austin (From Boston) and I’m an explorer at heart. I’m currently working as a wilderness therapy guide at Evoke at Entrada backpacking with struggling adolescents helping them heal and grow into their best versions! I love the work I do and it embodies me in many ways. I absolutely love the outdoors, helping people find their own path and following my own too. I tend to go with the flow and trust things happen for a reason, so I enjoy spontaneous adventures and meeting new people. I truly enjoy deep conversations and getting to see people’s true selves. Can’t wait to see yours!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Recorded and shared life stories on a traveling campus called Semester at Sea of people in over 11 different countries. Also, held an event in Ghana Africa where some students and I met with some locals and held an event, sharing our life stories and being vulnerable with each other, it was truly magical to see everyone connect as humans and become like family after the event.
