His Built Agents

--

Meet Henry Carbajales — Marine veteran, technology instructor at Montgomery College, and the founder of ProtoCon, an IT consulting and services firm. In our very first Builder Buildups episode, Henry shares his origin story and how building agents has completely transformed how he teaches, works, and creates.

"I'm not building agents — I'm teaching them."

— Henry Carbajales

As an educator, Henry understands the power of explanation. From simplifying complex tech concepts for students to accelerating lesson planning with AI, his agent-building approach is grounded in a deep desire to empower others. “What would take me hours or days, I can now do in minutes with my agents,” he says. Whether it’s designing a course outline or crafting a compelling LinkedIn post, Henry is reclaiming time and redefining his workflow.

Perhaps most inspiring is his classroom philosophy:

“I tell my students: use GenAI. I don’t care which tool — just learn how to think critically with it.”

Watch the full 30-minute interview to hear how Henry blends his consulting background, teaching mindset, and love for technology into an Agent-building practice that’s as purposeful as it is practical.
