Henry Carrillo’s journey into the window tinting business began in 2011 when he was hired by a local window film supplier. At the time, he was balancing two other jobs. He worked in a restaurant on weekends and did construction during the week. It was a busy season of life that laid the foundation for the career he would grow to love.
From 2011 to 2017, Henry gained hands-on experience and discovered a passion for the craft. But in 2017, just as life was bringing exciting news that he and his wife were expecting their first child, Henry also received a cancer diagnosis. It was a difficult and emotional season, but one that revealed his strength.
"Going back with the business, everyday is a new day."
A Battle of Strength and Faith
Despite the diagnosis, Henry never stopped working. He paused only on the days of chemotherapy and the day after for recovery. He leaned fully on his faith and trusted God through every step. In July of 2017, just one day before his birthday, Henry received the news that he was cancer free. Two weeks later, his daughter was born. It was a season filled with both trials and miracles.
Henry reached another major milestone in 2020 when he bought his first home. These moments have shaped the way he views his business, and they remind him daily of how far he has come.
Craftsmanship with Purpose
Henry takes pride in his ability to deliver quality service. Window tinting is more than a job for him. It is a craft he approaches with passion. He believes in doing great work, and it shows in the response from his customers. Every day brings new opportunities to grow and improve, and he welcomes those opportunities with determination and care.
Being a business owner means working more hours than ever before, but Henry sees it as a privilege. The ability to create his own future and serve others on his terms makes every challenge worth it.
