Why Austin Killian
Stands Out

Austin Killian is Co-Founder and Executive Vice President of Home Genius Exteriors, a role he has held since co-founding the company in November 2018. Starting from zero, he helped scale the business to over $350 million in revenue within seven years, establishing Home Genius Exteriors as a nationally recognized exterior remodeling brand. Killian leads the company's East Region and has been a driving force behind its expansion, including the announcement of new office openings and a nationwide partnership with Habitat for Humanity. He was named to Pro Remodeler's Top 40 Under 40 list, recognizing his impact on the industry at a young age. Before founding Home Genius Exteriors, Killian honed his sales and operational leadership skills as Vice President of the Ohio and Pennsylvania Division at College Works Painting. He holds a Bachelor of Business Administration in Finance and Marketing from the University of Pittsburgh School of Business.
