    Joey Seeman is a teenage entrepreneur and the founder and CEO of Nova Echo AI, a leading platform for hyper-realistic conversational voice AI that automates sales and customer service phone calls for businesses.

He made the bold decision to drop out, becoming potentially the first in the world to sell a voice AI agency at age 16.
