Early life and education

Austin is a rather secretive person who hasn’t shared much about his early life and his childhood years with the public. He is said to have been somewhat of a nerd during his high school years, and didn’t go partying with other students, but rather wanted to play video games and keep up with the technology news and releases.

He doesn’t usually talk about his parents either, and appears to be a single child as he hasn’t mentioned having any siblings. He often praises his mother for being very supportive of him and the main motivation for everything he does, while he also sometimes says a word or two about his father.

Austin matriculated from high school and enrolled at college but it is not known which one, and whether or not he graduated.

Career of a YouTuber

Austin’s career officially began on 4 August 2007 when he launched his YouTube channel, with his name as its title. As his description reads ‘The best of technology from gaming PCs to smartphones and everything in between. Whether it’s finding out if that new gadget is worth it, discovering the coolest of retro and cutting-edge tech or testing the latest smartphone you’ll find it all here.’ The channel is so far subscribed to by more than 3.7 million people, and counts nearly 710 million views of all his videos combined. Austin is not solely running the channel but it’s rather run by a couple of people – Austin serves as a presenter, Kenneth Bolido is in charge of production and ops, Matt Ansini is their producer, Jimmy Champane and Josh Blackey are the editors, and Wesley Knapp is a specialist for production and color.

Austin is not an actor, but has appeared in the “Scrapyard Wars” YouTube series made by Linus Sebastian, a popular Canadian YouTuber. Austin appeared in the third season with Sebastian and Lafreniere, and they were given the challenge of building a gaming PC with the best price for performance gaming, while they had an unlimited budget – the entire season counts seven episodes. During one of Sebastian’s interviews, he stated that Austin is one of his three favorite YouTubers.

Austin has also appeared in the “My Friend, Oscar” comedy drama fantasy movie, shot in 2010.

The halt of his career

On 29 January 20-something, Austin’s home caught fire and burned to the ground. Austin was only able to pick up a few things on his way out, while most of his important and valuable possessions were lost in the flames. He and other residents of the building managed to get out without a scar or scratch, but they lost the roof over their heads and almost all of their belongings – Austin lost what was most important to him: his equipment for making videos. Thanks to their friends and families, they managed to land back on their feet, but it took them a while.

However, in Austin’s case, the people who helped him the most were his fellow YouTubers – 15 YouTubers who are tech vloggers as well heard about what happened, and formed a group to help Austin. Two of them named Unbox Therapy and tldtoday flew in to Austin to surprise him with new equipment – Austin’s father knew what was going on, and placed a camera to film the surprise.
