Austin Perlee

Austin serves as the Donor and Programs Specialist at the Academy of Model Aeronautics (AMA) Foundation. During his years on the Executive Board for Ball State University Dance Marathon, Austin realized his growing love for finding ways to help give back to people and the community. Austin has recently graduated from Ball State University in Muncie, Indiana and received his degree for a major in Advertising and a minor in Graphic Design.  Throughout his time at Ball State University, he has joined organizations like Ball State University Dance Marathon which have allowed him to use his degree in real world situations and helped him realize his passion for helping others. He is now using that same information and drive to work for AMA full-time and help grow the development and experience of model aviation for many people. When he is not working, Austin likes to be around his loved ones and friends, go hiking, play board games, watch movies, and tend to his many houseplants. He has also recently adopted a new puppy; a Silver Lab named Crater. Crater keeps his days and evenings at home busy and fun.
