Austin Ernesti is the CEO and Founder of Trajectory NW and he is beyond passionate about our forests, the timber industry and education. His heart is to bring awareness to the next generation and acquaint them with all the resources and job opportunities that there are right here in the great Pacific Northwest! His energy and drive along with his positive outlook are just contagious! If I had a child still in school, I'd be super excited for them to go on one of Austin's field trips or attend one of his classes or seminars! Austin is truly a treasure in this community and deserves some recognition for all his hard work making sure there's a next generation to carry on caring for our forests and the workings of the timber industry.
