Growing up in Maplewood, NJ (exit 143), Austin was a member of many baseball, soccer, and math teams. He went on to fulfill a Pre-Med and Psychology program at Williams College (Class of 2003) where he captained the baseball team and played soccer.
Since graduating college, Austin has been teaching at Greenwich Country Day School, where he has taught math and science; coached baseball, basketball, and soccer; coordinated grade levels and service projects; and chaired the science department. He is currently teaching biology, coaching baseball, and coordinating service at the Upper School. Austin has enjoyed preparing Carnegie Prep students for various college preparatory exams, including the ACT and the SAT, since 2004.
Austin and his wife live in Greenwich and enjoy adventuring each summer, whether biking the West Coast, hiking in Iceland, or building a school in Ghana. Currently, they are in the midst of a different type of adventure altogether – negotiating with their intrepid children, trying to avoid the ER, and learning the ropes of school from a parent’s perspective.

Austin,
I would like to thank you so much for the preparation that you gave me for the math SAT. With your help on the challenging “killer” packets, I earned a 750 with only two questions wrong! I would recommend this course to anyone because you help every student succeed significantly. Thanks again!

Hi Austin,
I just wanted to thank you again for all your help with the SATs. Getting an 800 in Math was awesome! Those killer packets and plug-in-number strategies were great practice and I did not have any surprises during the test. Thanks again for making the SATs less stressful.

Dear Austin and Marshall,
I decided to take the SAT again in May because I thought I could improve my math score. I got my score back today – 2400! I am beyond happy, and wanted to share the good news, because all of your help made that score a possibility. I thank you for helping me achieve the perfect score! Thanks so much.

Our daughter’s SAT instructors, Ross and Rick, were terrific and continuously available to her for questions and encouragement. Austin did a great job with the ACT Blitz course. The proof is in the results — 700 on the Writing, 710 on the Critical Reading, and 760 on the Math. Her composite score on the ACT was 34!
LM, Parent
I wanted to share with you the great news. R. scored a total of 227, with a 70 in Critical Reading, 80 in Math, and 77 in Writing. These scores are a 52 point increase from his PSAT last year. R. is thrilled at the results. I was glad that he went into the PSAT feeling confident and prepared.
AG, Parent
I just wanted to thank you for everything. I just received my PSAT scores, and thanks to your help I scored a 76 in Math. I know for a fact that this score is a direct result of your help, so I just wanted to take the time to express my appreciation for your effort and time. Thank you.

My son got his SAT scores back: Critical Reading 740, Math 800, Writing 730. Austin did an amazing job getting him prepared! They went out of their way to spend extra time with him through phone calls and help after class and were genuinely concerned about his performance. Thanks again for all your continued help!
