Austin was born in Houston and lived in Humble until 1998 when his family moved to the Woodlands. He recently moved back to Houston and was attending Lone Star College where he was interested in getting a degree in the medical field, so he could help others.

Growing up in The Woodlands, Austin played baseball, basketball, football, skateboarding and video games. He loved fishing with his Daddy and traveling to the beach with his family.
