About Austin

A Higher Standard Starts Here

Austin built Tier 1 to create a different kind of automotive shop—one where craftsmanship, professionalism, transparency, and customer experience are treated as seriously as the finished vehicle.

Rather than competing on price, Tier 1 focuses on delivering exceptional results using industry-leading products, highly trained installers, refined installation processes, and strict quality-control standards.

That philosophy has helped Tier 1 Tint Wraps PPF become the only XPEL Signature Partner in Las Vegas, earn XPEL Market Leader of the Year in 2024 and Dealer of the Year in 2025, and become a Tesla Preferred Install Center.

Building Tier 1

From a Vision to a Las Vegas Leader

Today, Tier 1 Tint Wraps PPF specializes in paint protection film, ceramic window tint, ceramic coatings, vinyl wraps, and commercial and fleet graphics. Austin remains closely involved in the company’s direction, from developing new services and installation processes to sales, marketing, technology, training, and the overall customer experience.

His focus is not simply on growing Tier 1, but on building a company capable of delivering the same premium standard at every stage of the customer journey.

At the center of that philosophy is a simple belief: customers should feel just as confident in the company protecting their vehicle as they did in choosing the vehicle itself.
