#188 Luce Carter was saved by software development

Luce took us back to her childhood when she discovered computers but also realized she didn't fit into the mold. She told us the story of her being bullied and eventually diagnosed as being on the autistic spectrum. She told us about her difficulty studying and how she finally found a vocational program in IT that matched her needs so well that she could strive. She then took us on the wild ride of the many jobs she had, how she discovered Xamarin, entered the communities, and finally ended up at MongoDB, doing for money what she loves: creating content and helping people.
