Elahn's bio in her words   My journey as a self-taught developer started August 9, 2020. Since then, I am grateful to say that I've gained an awesome community of developer friends around the globe! I have also started my own book club called .NET Book Study, as well as my own YouTube channel 'Elahn Danee Codes'.   My mission is to 1. Continue learning how to code as a self self-taught C# developer; 2. Create content that teaches and encourages .NET newcomers; and 3. Cultivate an online community, in which .NET newcomers feel supported and empowered.    You can follow Elahn on Social Media  https://twitter.com/CodeThLightning  https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZpg20byiIpKa1cJc1hEpTg   PLEASE SUBSCRIBE TO THE PODCAST   - Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6ddVKXbZGtMz3y66D9QD0e - Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/coffee-and-open-source/id1589875016 - Google Podcasts: https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9hbmNob3IuZm0vcy82Mzk4MmY3MC9wb2RjYXN0L3Jzcw - RSS: http://isaacl.dev/podcast-rss  You can check out more episodes of Coffee and Open Source on https://www.coffeeandopensource.com/​​.   Coffee and Open Source is hosted by Isaac Levin (https://twitter.com/isaacrlevin).
