About Lauren:
Lauren Hasson is an accomplished Director of Software Engineering at a leading Silicon Valley payments company where she has worked for the past five years. Her professional work has been featured in Apple keynotes, she was one of 100 top innovators worldwide invited to the UK G8 Innovation Conference, and she’s won more than eighteen international awards for her work in entrepreneurship, product innovation, and leadership including multiple recognitions by the United Nations. Lauren is also the best-selling author of The DevelopHer Playbook, published in 2021.
Despite her numerous accolades, Lauren found herself with no job, no marketable skills, and no money in her bank account just ten years ago. Lauren found a way to rebuild her life from rock bottom and transformed herself into a top, high-profile professional in less than two years. Upon learning from a male peer that he had been hired at a 50% higher salary than her, Lauren was able to triple her base salary in just another two short years. Lauren then founded DevelopHer to help women in tech to get ahead, stand out, and build their value so that no one else would have to go at it alone like she did.
Lauren now travels the world both virtually and to live events helping women and men professionally and personally move the needle to bridge the gender opportunity gap and has inspired thousands to reach for opportunities that they would have not otherwise reached for.
