About John McCollum

John McCollum makes art, music and food. He also helps kids.

John owned and led of an award-winning, Columbus, Ohio-based branding and design firm from 1998 to 2009. In 2009, John left his company to become Executive Director of Asia’s Hope, a non-profit he had accidentally co-founded in 2001.

Today, Asia’s Hope provides homes for more than 800 orphaned children in Cambodia, Thailand and India, grants university and vocational training scholarships for more than 130 students and employs more than 250 indigenous staff in South and Southeast Asia.

John is approximately as handsome as he is tall and probably likes his food a bit spicier than you do.

John isn’t particularly tall.

John would consider commissions on art, music and, he supposes, food — if the price is right and the project is interesting.
