A Colorado native from Colorado Springs, Austyn moved to Breckenridge nearly two decades ago and has held numerous strategic public relations roles throughout her time in the mountains at Breckenridge Tourism Office (BTO), Breckenridge Ski Resort, Copper Mountain Resort, and Swift Communications. Today she hangs her hat at Backbone Media, a media agency that is based in Carbondale and Denver, as an Associate PR Director. You can find Austyn doing all the things outside with her two boys, Forest and Fischer, her husband, Ryan, and their dog, Barley. She is passionate about the wacky mountain lifestyle that Colorado is known for and energized by being able to greet 95% of Breckenridge’s residents by name and a smile.
