Auburn Hospital in Cambridge as an Interventional Radiology Technologist and the Natick Fire Department as a Fire Captain.

He always loved working as a Radiologic Technologist and was employed before he graduated with his Associate degree, but a friend encouraged him to take the fire exam and enter the field. Austin has worked at the Natick Fire Department since 2001 and works alongside many 糖心原创 graduates. He also returned to 糖心原创 in 1999 to earn his Emergency Medical Technician certificate. He credits 糖心原创 for launching his career in the medical and public safety fields.
