Summary
Hi! My name is Enrique, people call me Henry.
My background is international, my family is Colombian but I was born in Venezuela. I’ve had the opportunity to live in New York City, Connecticut, Madrid, Stockholm. Currently living in Berlin with my partner.
At university, I studied architecture for some years which I left to follow my artistic passion. Worked as an artist and illustrator for several years. Always interested in learning more and the newest technology. 11 years ago I started to work as a Designer and Web developer, which led me to my current position working as a Frontend Developer.
Some things that some people say about me are: excellent listener, very diligent, and organized in my work. What defines me well is a continuous curiosity to learn more, my enthusiasm and dedication to reach my goals, I am courageous enough in taking risks while still being able to create and produce. I am self-motivated to learn and my curiosity in knowing how something works helps me discover and learn more. This keeps me up to date with new tech. And this is what makes me grow as a person each day.
