CEO ◆ CO-OWNER

John Yogodzinski is a hard-working and tech-savvy entrepreneur that works in Williamsport, PA, and resides in Turbotville, PA.

In 2009 he founded his first company, The Graphic Hive as a way to assist businesses with their marketing technology, and printing needs. Realizing that art played a major role as an influencer on the creative side of The Graphic Hive’s operation, he opened a contemporary art gallery, Converge Gallery (formerly Grey Art Gallery) in June of 2011. At the beginning of 2018, Converge Gallery transitioned into a non-profit, 501(c)(3) organization under the name Arthaus Projects.

Throughout the years, John has made waves by launching two successful micro brands: Frame It Here and Devoted to Your Day. Frame It Here offers in-house conservation framing featuring museum-quality materials designed to protect your most cherished items. Devoted To Your Day is focused on the details of your wedding. Backed by the power of The Graphic Hive, Devoted To Your Day can offer a lot of custom printed items and design services that complement a bride through her planning process. They are best known for their Photo Booth rentals which make any event more memorable. These sub-brands help fuel lead generation in micro niches as they utilize the power of the internet and search engine optimization to effectively make sales.

In 2017, John launched a publishing division called Hive Publishing Co., and released his first hardcover art book, Plastic Fantastic, in November 2017.

John has prior marketing experience, having worked at SupplySource Office Interiors from 2008 – 2013, serving as their Marketing and IT Coordinator.

John is a 2007 Magna Cum Laude graduate of the Pennsylvania College of Technology. In March 2017, John was presented with the Alumni of the Year Award at the 16th annual Chamber Education celebration.
