About this Founder

Inspired by the struggle of keeping her twin boy’s beds tidy, Betsy created a zippered bedding prototype and launched Beddy’s with a 2014 Kickstarter campaign. Beddy’s growth has been recognized as one of Mountain West Capital’s fastest growing companies and just four years after launch, Beddy’s was named #270 on Inc’s 500 after demonstrating a four-year growth of 2,610%. The Inc. 5000 list also revealed that Beddy’s ranked #9 as one of the 10 fastest-growing private companies in Utah. After five years of continual growth, Betsy was named Entrepreneur of the Year by Salt Lake Chamber of Commerce in 2018. Beddy’s was recently chosen by Google as the only company to represent Utah in the Google Economic Report.

Beddy’s is headquartered in the Salt Lake valley where Betsy and her husband Gentry call home and are raising their three teenage children. Along with being a wife, mom and CEO, Betsy also manages her kids and family YouTube channels.
