Early Life
John grew up in Washington and as a kid, he wanted to be a fighter pilot. After completing high school, he would join the military with this dream. He became part of the United States Air Force as a loadmaster but later realized that this profession was not for him at all.
Blippi Net Worth and Career
After completing his duty, John focused on being a director and started shooting television commercials. Yet, it would be his nephew who would inspire his new creation.

This is when John came up with the idea of creating a childlike energetic character who was very curious to learn and would explore different things to learn.
The character Blippi was born with the output of a blue and orange beanie cap with a shirt and suspenders. The character was meant to explore the world together with kids and feed their curiosity to know new things.

There is also a tour called Blippi the Musical which goes to different towns in the U.S. in a live show for kids with their parents. However, this tour had caught criticism from parents in 2019 as John himself did not show up but rather a stage performer was used. Though his team stated that this was clearly communicated, parents were not happy and they would give a refund. The tour is currently running all over the U.S.
