Julia Elman is a designer, developer, and tech education advocate based in North Carolina. She has been working on her brand of web skills since 2002. Her creative nature drove her to find work in 2007 at Hallmark Cards, Inc., where she worked on projects such as the Product (RED) campaign and Hallmark's site redesign. From there, she took a dive into Django as a junior designer/developer at World Online in Lawrence, Kansas. In early 2013, she helped start a local chapter of Girl Develop It and empowered over 600 members to learn computer programming. She also helped organize the 2013 Teen Tech Camp, where 20 local teens learned Python programming in a one-day event.
