Dallas Caley | Software, Strategy & Business
Hi, I'm Dallas, I don't quite fit into the mold of anyone you may have encountered in the past. I came from nothing, no education no money and worked my way up running my own businesses and also writing code and eventually leading teams of developers.
After having accomplished a lot with no credentials, I decided to go back to school and get a bachelors degree in business and start another company of like-minded individuals to see if i could take it to the next level. I finished that degree in 2025, and it went well enough that I went right back for more. I am now working on my Masters in Business Administration (MBA), which I plan to complete in 2027.
That is where I am now. I enjoy crossing the chasm between technology and business in ways that I have not seen done in the past. I speak the language of both groups and I think this will lead to something great.
This is my magnum opus. It represents the culmination of over a decade of planning and research and false starts.
