Austin Brotzman

Austin Brotzman joined the company in 2018 and has been in the industry since 2012. He attended UT Knoxville for 5 years and graduated with a Bachelor of Architecture. His professional skills include but are not limited to Conceptual Rendering, Dynamo, Virtual Reality, Drone Photography, Photoshop, Revit, and Construction Documents.

Austin’s professional background includes being a Student Assistant at UT Knoxville, where he developed secondary skills such as coding, graphic design, and augmented/virtual reality. He was also a Lead Designer at an International non-profit where he created 3D and 2D representations and designs. He has received several awards for his skills, including awards for Advertising Design, AutoDesk Inventor, and Computer Aided Drafting from both SkillsUSA and Centennial High School.

His career was being shaped in high school when he joined CAD Focus in which he learned hand drafting, computer drafting and modeling, physical modeling, 3D printing, laser cutting, and designing. He had a dual focus in digital design, where he also learned photo manipulation, photography, and graphical layouts.

Austin says the best part about his job is that it is always growing. He is particularly excited about the recent advancements of the industry into AR/VR, drones, and BIM Optimization, as they allow the team to focus more on the design rather than documentation.

In his free time, Austin enjoys playing guitar, fishing, automotive restoration, video games, serving in the Youth Ministry at his church, and spending time with his wife, two kids and their dog.

“I was introduced to Legos very young and to this day I still believe that is where all of this started.”
