ECHOVOICE

Michael Olsen, who PC Magazine calls “an artful hacker,” founded Echovoice while pursuing his Aerospace Engineering degree at Arizona State University. He first built a gaming statistics application that interfaced with the Logitech G15 keyboard, and then when on to create Class Alert, a technology that provides tools for college students to manage their schedules. Teddy Garland, an Aerospace Engineering grad from ASU, joined the Scottsdale based company after graduation. Shortly thereafter, Echovoice began its first foray into the fast-paced world of social media. With their programming and mathematical backgrounds, the two created highly accurate models to predict demographic and psychographic data packages. (Turns out, it really is rocket science.)
