Prior to co-founding Tiny Organics, Betsy is the founder of pet wearables brand WonderWoof. WonderWoof made Oprah's Favorite Things list and launched at Story, Bloomingdales, Harrods, Colette, Best Buy, Urban Outfitters and every Petco in the US on end cap giving it the best retail traction of any pet wearable to date. Her products have been featured in Vogue, Wired, Good Housekeeping, Wall Street Journal, Tech Crunch, among others. Prior to founding WonderWoof, Betsy built Mind Candy in London alongside founder Michael Acton Smith (Calm). In her time there, Moshi Monsters reached over 100M registered users online and became the top selling toy brand in the UK. Betsy began her career inventing toys for Mattel, Hasbro and Spinmaster, developing product lines for Polly Pocket, WWE, UNO and Star Wars.
A true builder at heart, Betsy is an Industrial Designer by trade and builds from her own passions, struggles and dreams. Her "Why" for co-founding Tiny was from growing up on a sugar roller coaster and since "re-engineering" her body about 15 years ago to be vegetarian. Through Tiny, Betsy is giving her son a healthier lease on life by preferring vegetables from the earliest days. Tiny's recipes are over 80% veggies only, so she is seeking to expand the palates of a generation to prefer whole, real, rich and savory foods to last a lifetime from the very first bites.
