The Founder of Mentari.
I attended Duke University, where I graduated with top honors with a triple major in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, and Economics. I was a National Merit Scholar, US Top 50 high school valedictorian, and went on to build a high-impact career as a tech executive, accomplished engineer, and award-winning entrepreneur featured by Apple and recognized by the United Nations.
But I didn’t get there by chance—and I didn’t do it alone. I had to learn how to build my network, position myself strategically, and communicate my value early on.
Now, through Mentari, I teach students and their families the strategies that open doors—to college programs of their choice, real-world experience, and career opportunities that lead to long-term success.
Mentari is built around The Mentari Method—a proven 7-part framework that gives your child the skills, confidence, and roadmap to achieve the same kind of success—sooner, smarter, and with expert support at every step.
Let’s give them the edge that makes all the difference.
Rooted in real-world results, this is the same method Lauren used to build a multi-figure career in tech—now tailored to help students get into top STEAM programs, land internships, and graduate with leverage.
