About

Austin was running for a professional team in Boulder after college, chasing the dream, working part-time jobs and taking copywriting work where he could find it. An old mentor connected him with Alex, who had been writing all the scripts for Let There Be’s videos for years and needed to hand that off. Austin came on part-time and started writing.

He wrote scripts for about two years, and it started to click around a year in. The writing was far more technical than he was used to, and it was the repetition, script after script, that finally showed him where the company sits in the healthcare space and why that matters.

Taking in an enormous amount of information quickly is most of this job. I used to get overwhelmed by it. Somewhere along the way I made peace with that.

What he was working out in those scripts, how to find the heart of the science and then turn it into something creative, is what he went on to build around. Science Intelligence™ and Science Story™, and the services inside them, take that process and make it something the company can run on and offer to clients: how the science gets found, and how it becomes something people will actually pay attention to. Writing a claim and writing in a regulatory sense are skills he had never needed before, and both came with it.

Reading that much research left him with a conviction and a habit. The conviction is that there is a good product out there for essentially anything you can think of. The habit is asking questions of the ones he is actually taking: whether it is the right product for him, whether the science behind it is any good, whether it has earned a place in the cabinet.

Most of the time outside work goes to his golden retriever, Murphy, who is his best friend and his passenger on a lot of long drives with the music up. The rest is running, still, plus golf, a car he likes working on, and a very wide range of music, from Coldplay and the Strokes to Toro y Moi, Steely Dan and Stevie Wonder.
