Justin Klinkerman

Originally from Colorado, I moved to the beautiful city of Austin, TX in 2011 to be closer to family and get away from the cold weather.

Soon after moving to Austin, I found myself working in the events industry working for a photo booth company and later for an entertainment rental company. I’ve been involved in the industry ever since, including sitting on the board of ILEA Austin for two years.

On weekends you will find me playing my favorite sport, Field Mojo, or spending time with my fiancé Jordan and our two cats, Sundae and Sprinkles.

Dustin Klinkerman

Lead Game Designer and Co-owner of Austin Yard Games. I spend my free time tinkering with 3D printers and designing little things that make my life a bit easier.

I spent my adolescent years playing paintball, riding dirt bikes and building backyard siege weapons with my older brother Justin. After graduating high school I served 5 years in the U.S. Army and Texas Army National Guard, including a tour to Iraq in 2010.

Following my service I moved to Texas to be closer to some family and for 6 years I worked with my brother Justin in the event industry.
