About Nicolas | Haller Edge

Nicolas Haller

Saint Peter, MN · Founder, Haller Edge

I'm Nicolas Haller, and I've lived in Saint Peter since 2005 — so chances are we've crossed paths at some point.

My background isn't in tech. Over the years I've worked in banking, managed people, spent nearly a decade working at the Minnesota Security Hospital right here in Saint Peter, and I currently manage the operations of a family-owned accounting firm. I know what it's like to work hard, deal with the public, and try to keep all the plates spinning.

What I do know — and what I've thrown myself into — is AI and what it can do for small businesses like yours. I've spent a lot of time learning these tools, and I'm genuinely good at it. I'm not a big agency. I don't have a long list of credentials on a wall. What I have is a real understanding of how local businesses operate, a commitment to doing right by the people I work with, and three kids at home who motivate me to do good work every single day.

I started Haller Edge because I believe the technology that's changing big business should be accessible to small businesses too — and that it shouldn't take a huge budget or a computer science degree to get there. More than anything, I want to build something of my own and be home for Gabrielle and our growing family while I do it.
