We sit down for a chat with Henri Helvetica to discuss his journey from working at record labels to the fashion industry and then landing with a splash in the tech world. We discuss how his varied background has given him things to draw upon in the tech world in unexpected but serendipitous ways. We have a good discussion on the Toronto Web Perf & JAMstack Toronto meetups he hosts, the talks he gives at conferences around the world, and the weird, wonderful world of web performance.
