Lauren Chen

Lauren Chen launched her highly influential online career in 2016 under the moniker ‘Roaming Millennial’ on YouTube, where she rapidly built a platform for her insightful analyses of conservative political and social issues, covering topics such as immigration, LGBTQ+ rights, and feminism. This followed her academic achievements, having graduated cum laude from Brigham Young University in December 2014 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Political Science, where she also studied screenwriting. In 2017, she further expanded her reach by interviewing figures like Richard Spencer, positioning herself as a commentator engaging with a broad spectrum of viewpoints within conservative discourse. Her significant online presence led to the establishment of Roaming Millennial Inc.

in December 2017. By 2019, her primary YouTube channel demonstrated substantial growth, amassing over 400,000 subscribers and exceeding 45 million views. Chen leveraged this digital success to contribute to established media platforms, beginning with Evie Magazine in 2018, an anti-feminist publication, before joining CRTV later that year. Following CRTV’s merger with TheBlaze, Lauren Chen transitioned into a prominent role within the merged entity in 2018.

At TheBlaze, she hosted her own distinctive show, ‘Pseudo-Intellectual,’ where she further developed her analytical commentary. Concurrently, she became a notable contributor to Turning Point USA, solidifying her position as a respected voice across multiple leading conservative media outlets. In 2021, Chen expanded her writing portfolio, contributing a series of op-eds to RT, where she offered her perspective on geopolitical and societal matters. Demonstrating her entrepreneurial drive, she co-founded Tenet Media in January 2022, further diversifying her footprint in independent media production.
