 ...
 
-var objectToSerialize;
-...
-var serializer = new SerializerBuilder().Build();
-//yaml contains a string containing your YAML
-var yaml = serializer.Serialize(objectToSerialize);
+var yml = @"
+name: George Washington
+age: 89
+height_in_inches: 5.75
+addresses:
+  home:
+    street: 400 Mockingbird Lane
+    city: Louaryland
+    state: Hawidaho
+    zip: 99970
+";
+
+var deserializer = new DeserializerBuilder()
+    .WithNamingConvention(UnderscoredNamingConvention.Instance)  // see height_in_inches in sample yml 
+    .Build();
+
+//yml contains a string containing your YAML
+var p = deserializer.Deserialize<Person>(yml);
+var h = p.Addresses["home"];
+System.Console.WriteLine($"{p.Name} is {p.Age} years old and lives at {h.Street} in {h.City}, {h.State}.");
+// Output:
+// George Washington is 89 years old and lives at 400 Mockingbird Lane in Louaryland, Hawidaho.
