Lauren Johansson (Archer)

Lauren Johansson was a Human Starfleet officer from Melbourne, Australia, who most famously served on the USS Archer-D, as counselor and adviser to Captain Kelly Martin. She would marry and have a child with fellow shipmate Howard Mason. (Star Trek: Archer)

Early Life
Lauren Johansson grew up in Melbourne, Australia with her mother, Victoria (formerly Starfleet Admiral) and father Richard (College Professor) and her older sister, Veronica. After her father dies of an unknown illness, Lauren's mother wanted both her daughters to follow their father's footsteps and go to college to become teachers. However, Johnasson aspired to do other things. After graduating from Melbourne High School, she attended Starfleet Academy in San Francisco instead of Melbourne University like her sister. This causes a rift between Lauren and her mother.
