Sawyer Hemsley is the co-founder and CBO of Crumbl Franchising, America’s fastest-growing gourmet cookie company. Originally from Preston, Idaho, Sawyer didn’t venture far for his degree in marketing at Utah State.
After graduating, Sawyer was a marketing assistant of On Advertising, an advertising agency in Preston but left in 2017 to start Crumbl, the first of many projects. Since then, he's founded Hemsley Ventures, a forward-thinking, values-driven investing group that uplifts brands to become new-nostalgic favorites through capital, community, and strategic brand positioning. His projects include Polar Bear Eats, Peach Grove House, and Hemsley Ranch with big visions for more in 2023.
