#1375 How an accidental entrepreneur built and sold coding school DevMountain for $20,000,000
In the years that I’ve been doing these interviews, I’ve done a few with entrepreneurs who have built coding schools.
At first it took me by surprise. How can a school do really, really well?
That’s similar to the interview we have today but the twist is that today’s guest is really risk averse and STILL he took the plunge to start this business.
Cahlan Sharp is the founder of DevMountain, a top code school which holds in-person classes.
