About Cedric Clyburn
I\'ve always loved the moment when something \"clicks,\" where you realize how something works and there\'s clarity. When I had the opportunity during my first internship in college to become a developer advocate, I was able to make that happen for others, all while spreading the awareness of open-source software and culture. Since then, I\'ve been devoted to making education more accessible for all, to work in the open, and to help make developers\' lives easier!My background has been focused on Kubernetes for application deployment, working on projects like Podman for container management and vLLM for AI inferencing. I\'ve built interactive demos, led workshops around the world, and help developers use open source projects. However, I absolutely *love* creating video and written content to help developers learn new topics in emerging technologies, with over 2M+ views online. One of my passions is connecting folks, so I help organize the annual Kubernetes Community Days conference in New York City. I also enjoy speaking at conferences and have had the privilege to speak at events including Devoxx, The Linux Foundation\'s AI.dev, WeAreDevelopers World Congress, DeveloperWeek, DevNexus, DevConf, and many more!
