WILLIAM "AUSTIN" LEA
Lead Adventure Guide– William “Austin” Lea, a UTC graduate with a B.S. in Human Health Performance: Sport, Outdoor Recreation, and Tourism Management. He started as a summer intern, and transitioned to Adventure Guide immediately after. With a background in e-unicycle riding, free boarding, and several water sports, he quickly became passionate when guiding our adventure seekers through our wide array of experiences, including the Swincar Backcountry Tours. He enjoys educating the public and fitted right in with ASI’s mission. As a Chattanooga outdoorsman, you can often find him on a mountain bike trail or strolling around downtown on his electric longboard.
MADISON DUNLAP
Lead Adventure Guide – In addition to her Lead Adventure Guide duties, Madison also manages ASI birthday parties and celebrations and takes care of social media postings. A Lifeguard Instructor, Water Safety Instructor, and certified in CPR, First Aid, and AED, Madison loves taking guests out on our e-surfboards, Kymera bodyboards, Schiller Bikes, and other water gear. She has worked for the UTC Aquatics Recreation Center and the Clarksville Parks and Recreation Department. With twelve years’ experience as a gymnast, she is the only guide who can perform a “Hovershoe Handstand”! When not working with ASI Madison enjoys hanging out with her dog in downtown Chattanooga and exploring the Cumberland Plateau.
CORUM "CORY" GOLD
Adventure Guide – Cory is a native of Chattanooga, Baylor School Alum, and U.S. Army veteran. After cutting his teeth in the health and fitness industry as a personal trainer and district manager later on, Cory brought his passion for helping people live their best lives to the ASI team. You are most likely to see him as soon as you enter the store ready to guide you to your next great adventure! Outside of ASI, Cory spends his time volunteering as an EMT with the Tri-Community fire department, enjoying the Chattanooga social scene, or rock climbing with his partner, Marguerite.
JORDAN STEINER
Adventure Guide- Jordan’s passions for outdoor adventure and technology make him a perfect fit here at ASI. He has a ton of experience off-roading in Tennessee and his Swincar tours have quickly become famous among our guests! If you run into him at the shop, make sure to ask about the Summerboard. He’s a true master of this device and when he’s not working (and sometimes when he is working…) you’ll see him spinning and carving across Chattanooga’s North Shore.
HOLDEN GERSCH
Video Specialist- Holdenis (by far!) the youngest employee we’ve ever had. He graduated from the STEM School of Chattanooga, now at Purdue University. His first visits to ASI were actually during a high school project (FabLab) when his team designed, created and installed artwork (on your next visit to our shop, peek into our Experience Room, you cannot miss it – it takes all the back wall!). He’s always loved guiding our guests with their VR roller-coaster experiences; we would not be surprised to see him designing real-life adrenaline pumping roller-coasters a few years from now!
