Austin’s journey began in the Army, where he served numerous deployments, learning firsthand the critical importance of time in emergencies. After leaving the military, he expanded his expertise as a CPR instructor and licensed dispatcher, driven by one core belief: every second matters when it comes to saving lives.
But it wasn’t just his military experience that shaped his purpose...
The moment that changed everything came when Austin saved his own daughter from choking as an infant. That life-altering experience became the spark for his mission: “50K Lives Saved.” This initiative is dedicated to equipping businesses, organizations, and families with the training and tools they need to respond confidently in emergencies—both at work and at home.
Fast forward to today, and the story has come full circle. Austin’s daughter, now trained in life-saving techniques, saved his life during a choking emergency. This powerful moment underscores the heart of the Rapid Pulse philosophy: life-saving skills don’t just protect workplaces—they protect families.

I published a children's book titled Hanukkah Wishes aimed at kids who are both Jewish and Catholic, which became a #1 bestseller on Amazon. Additionally, I hold a patent for an invention. Recently I have swapped out my kitchen sign that reads EAT-PRAY-LOVE for a metal poster board featuring the hit movie "Threat Level Midnight" from Great Scott Productions.
I'm married, to the woman that saved heart and soul. Together, we are
blessed with incredible kids who are not only intelligent but also talented
inventors and artists. My daughter serves as my assistant CPR instructor and
has already saved a few lives, including mine! My son is even smarter than
young Sheldon, and they both have hearts of gold.
