Dillow studied at the University of Maryland, where he earned both his bachelor’s degree and an MBA. BlueAlly’s account of his early career places him in strategy consulting and venture capital before he moved into corporate finance in the IT sector; the firms involved are not named.
His operating finance experience was built at two technology solutions providers. At Presidio and at Iron Bow Technologies he led corporate finance teams during periods of rapid growth. BlueAlly does not give the titles he held or the dates of either role.
