I’m Austin Joseph, an actor, proud disabled artist, and brain cancer survivor. My journey into the entertainment industry began with a deep love for storytelling and a belief in the power of representation. I trained in theater to start, carefully building a career centered around authentic, emotionally grounded work. Acting wasn’t just something I enjoyed, it was how I connected with the world and built my community.

Everything changed when I was diagnosed with brain cancer. The illness took everything from me: my ability to speak, eat, walk, and breathe on my own. My career came to a complete halt. But as I slowly regained strength, I made a commitment to rebuild, not just my health, but my creative life and my place in the industry. That ongoing journey is the heart of my work today.

Now, with the support from my team around me, i’m auditioning again and reestablishing connections in the industry. I specialize in bringing warmth, honesty, and quiet strength to my roles. I’m especially drawn to projects that center inclusion, resilience, and real humanity.

What sets me apart isn’t just my lived experience, it’s the emotional truth I bring to the screen because of it. I don’t take a single moment on set for granted. I approach every role with gratitude, preparation, and heart. I’m proud to be part of a growing movement for disability representation in media, not just as a subject, but as a storyteller.

If you’re a casting director, filmmaker, or creative looking for an actor who brings sincerity, depth, and lived perspective to his work, I’d love for you to get to know my story. My brand is built on resilience, realness, and the belief that powerful performances come from lived truth.
