Episode description
Full transcript and show notes at theomnishow.omnigroup.com
Brian Covey studied computer science at The Evergreen State College — which your host also attended, but back before computers were a thing. After some normal young-person-bouncing-around a little, Brian came to shore at Omni in 2001, where he became the leader, dear and fearless, of Omni’s Support Humans.
You can find Brian @hidvorak on Twitter. (You can contact Omni support at support.omnigroup.com.)
You can also find a video of Brian doing the worm in an Omni commercial from 2006. Absolutely not to be missed!
