Faila Pinot Noir
Episode Details
Chris Messina is the Developer Experience Lead at Uber, a role he attributes to a life “peppered with serendipity.” A native New Englander, he’s also lived a life that truly embodies the spirit of the internet – a place where everyone has an equal voice, where democracy enables true societal progress. At least in theory. Over Failla Pinot Noir, Chris discusses his high school days in New Hampshire, battling his school to ensure the Gay-Straight Alliance had a place on its website (a battle which almost cost him his diploma), helping develop web standards with the launch of Mozilla, using pioneering social media tactics to launch BarCamp, and how no matter what he does, it’s about continuing in a career he 100% believes in.
