“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
