Normally, Jeremy Burkhardt, CEO of Origin Acoustics, is hard to pin down. The always-hustling Burkhardt is a true road warrior constantly traveling to build the company he founded several years ago.
Now, like everyone else Burkhardt finds himself at home during the coronavirus lockdown. Work from home (WFH) may be a new concept to Burkhardt, but it is not stopping him from being productive or enjoying his increased family time.
