After growing up with his sister on their family's Pennsylvanian farm, Austin moved to Nashville, Tennessee with the rest of the Swift family when he was around 12-years-old in order to help Taylor pursue her singing career.
However, over the years, Austin has also been inspired to go into the arts industry, and in 2016, the then-budding-actor made his debut in the crime thriller I.T., which also starred former James Bond actor, Pierce Brosnan.

In 2017, the young star then made the leap to television, and featured in two episodes of comedy series Embeds, and one episode of Billy Ray Cyrus' show Still the King.

But Austin also continued to act in comedies, as he had a role that year alongside Harry Potter's Tom Felton in the film Braking for Whales.
Since 2019, the 31-year-old has seemingly taken a break from acting, but moved over to work behind the camera in production. His most recent project according to the website IMDb was co-producing the sci-fi film I Am Mortal.
