John Modi
Chief Imagination Officer
John Modi is a dynamic entrepreneur, creative force, and the heart behind MakerFlo Crafts, where he is driven by a passion for helping crafters transform their hobbies into flourishing businesses. His artistic journey began at the young age of 7 when he started sketching and exploring oil painting. Throughout his school years, John was known for filling the margins of his notebooks with intricate drawings rather than taking notes—proof of a lifelong love for creativity that would later become the foundation of his career.
By his teen years, John’s entrepreneurial spirit was already in full swing. He balanced tutoring, teaching tennis, and flipping goods on Craigslist, all while discovering his love for business. This entrepreneurial hustle continued into his college years at Arizona State University's W.P. Carey School of Business, where he earned a degree in Finance while simultaneously working as a Business Analyst and running his first e-commerce venture. With over 15 years of experience in the e-commerce world and an insatiable hunger to blend creativity with strategy, John is a master at turning ideas into profitable ventures.
John's crafting expertise extends to custom engravings, sublimation, resin art, DTF printing, and UV printing. These skills have allowed him to innovate within the crafting industry, educating and inspiring others to embrace their creative potential. At MakerFlo Crafts, he leads with a fun, quirky personality that brings energy and excitement to every project, workshop, and collaboration.
A firm believer in the power of community, John actively collaborates with affiliates and influencers to uplift small businesses. He’s particularly passionate about packaging, teaching others how to create memorable branding that turns products into unforgettable experiences. Through MakerFlo Crafts, John’s mission is clear: to educate, inspire, and empower makers to achieve their dreams, combining artistry with business savvy to shape the future of the crafting community.
