Henry began his tenure with the company as a Process Control Engineer. During his time at Colgate, Henry attained an MBA degree and served as Controller of the Technology Group before earning his Juris Doctor degree and retiring as an in-house corporate Patent Attorney.

Additionally, during his time with the U.S Army, Henry was an Adjunct Professor teaching accounting to MBA students at the Florida Institute of Technology. As noted earlier, Henry was an avid learner. In addition to his career-related accomplishments, Henry attained a Black Belt in Tae Kwon Do, trained as a pilot, and to the chagrin of his wife, he took up motorcycling later in life. Most recently, Henry was a student working toward his LLM in Taxation at Villanova University to augment his part-time work as a Tax Preparer at H&R Block.
