Austin Babbitt started his journey as an artist and designer in the vibrant New York City street culture. In his teens, he experimented with art, graffiti, and unconventional fashion designs, often hand-painting pieces and customizing clothing for his friends. His bold style and raw approach quickly gained attention, particularly among a youth audience looking for something authentic and rebellious. Babbitt chose the moniker “Asspizza” as a nod to humor and counterculture, embracing his identity as a nonconformist who defies traditional fashion norms.
