Henrique Barone — CEO & Designer @ Nora
About
I wear several hats at Nora. I lead the company as founder, design and build the front-end for our mobile, web and commercial surfaces, and sit at the centre of distribution to customers and investors.
Most of my technical range came the self-directed way — certified courses from Meta and DeepLearning.AI, two computer engineering and computer science programmes, and a long run of projects I shipped because I wanted them to exist.
I also passed ANBIMA's CEA exam at 18, which makes me a certified Investment Specialist. It is an unusual thing for a front-end developer to carry, and it shapes how I think about the business side of everything I build.
