Austin Edge
FACILITY MANAGER
“Work hard, train hard, play hard” truly defines Austin Edge. When not on the ski slopes training as a competitive racer, he was either at the range perfecting his shooting skills or on the family’s forty-foot sailboat learning to sail. When Monty Edge started Every Day Ready, a NC-based training organization providing training in firearms, self-protection, tactical medical and emergency preparedness to the consumer market, Austin was an assistant instructor and later became a partner. As Every Day Ready expanded beyond the consumer market, Austin decided to join his parents at Active Threat Solutions, LLC. Today, he manages both the warehouse and the office building. He and girlfriend, Lauren Krause, took the lead on the renovation of THE EDGE CENTER, Active Threat Solutions’ new training space.

OUR MOTTO
PREPARE
Preparation is the foundation of readiness and without it we cannot be truly ready to respond. The work of preparation is typically focused on planning, people, and kit.
TRAIN
Training is a critical and necessary component of any emergency response plan. Responders must acquire and maintain knowledge, skills, and practical abilities in order to empower life-saving capability.
RESPOND
Response is the action of survival and saving lives; it is what we prepare and train for. Are you prepared to do what is necessary to save lives?
