Bio
Brad Denkmann
Henry has a strong command of the networking space, including fundamentals and advanced concepts. He is a reassuring and stabilizing presence, especially for employees and teammates who are not as well-versed in networking concepts as he is. Numerous times I have found myself in an anxious state while working on a feature, wondering how the networking components were going to function. Henry was always there to calmly explain how things would work, and in many cases, how he'd already built exactly what I needed before I asked. I hope I get the chance to work with Henry again in the future.

Henry is a trusted and delivery focused IT professional whom I had the pleasure to work with during my time at Qualys. Working in a highly demanding network and infrastructure environment Henry was able to consistently deliver great results as well as work with a calm and diligent manner which is so rare in the industry. He has the continued respect of his colleagues of which I was one of many. I cannot recommend more highly.
