A Texas Tech grad with an MBA from MIT’s Sloan School, Laurel has lived through the problem she’s working to solve: out of control student debt. After conquering her own financial stress and spending a decade in tech sales—including at Google where she catered to large customers—she started Candidly to guide individuals and families through every step of the planning, borrowing, and repayment experience. Candidly is now the leading student debt and savings optimization platform.
