Mathura Mahendren, MDes

Mathura Mahendren is a storyteller by nature and a design researcher by nurture. Her work focuses on creating tools, frameworks, and spaces that guide individuals and groups through difference, discomfort, grief, change, and growth. Mathura recognizes the deep connection between our ability to navigate these experiences and the way we are taught to love, with love being both the method and the driving force behind her work.


For Mathura, Vertria represents more than just a resource—it’s a partner that understands the founder’s journey. It acknowledges the challenges of entrepreneurship and helps founders build both internal and external infrastructure with intention, integrity, and insight, supporting them as they navigate uncertainty and responsibility to themselves, their community, and the world.
