This episode features an interview with Ceora Ford, Developer Advocate at Auth0. Ceora began her career in 2020 during the height of the global pandemic. Because of the unusual timing, she focused on learning in public and getting her name out in the industry. Ceora’s career revolves around creating education content that makes the tech industry more accessible to everyone. She’s collaborated with companies like Apollo GraphQL, CodeSandbox, and egghead.io.
In this episode, Cassidy, Zach, and Ceora discuss building relationships, learning how to ask for help, and Ceora’s love of K-pop.

“Every job that I've gotten is because of people who I became friends with through learning in public. It's not just a take relationship, it's give and take. So you do a couple things for them, they do a couple things for you. That's how I've gotten every role thus far. I really think that me investing so much time and building that community was really valuable because it's something that still helps me to this day.” – Ceora Ford
