Kari Bennett is the Founder and CEO of EDGEiD, a full-service interior design firm based in Salt Lake City, Utah, specializing in hospitality, multi-family, and commercial interiors. With 20 years of industry experience, Kari launched EDGEiD in 2013 with a vision to create a more efficient, client-focused design process that fosters long-term partnerships and delivers thoughtful, impactful spaces. Her passion for design naturally drew her to the hospitality sector, where she thrives on the fast-paced, collaborative nature of the work.

Under her leadership, EDGEiD has delivered projects across the U.S., partnering with top hospitality brands including Marriott, Hilton, and IHG. Kari is widely recognized for her direct communication style, attention to detail, and strong vendor relationships—all of which contribute to her firm’s reputation for high-quality, well-executed results.

In addition to leading a growing design studio, Kari is a proud working mom of three—and a dog—balancing entrepreneurship with a vibrant family life. Whether she's exploring new places with her family, on a boating adventure with friends, or enjoying evening walks along the trail, Kari brings the same energy and excitement to her personal life as she does her work. Her active lifestyle and passion for connection are reflected in both her home and the welcoming, dynamic spaces she helps create through EDGEiD.
