John Petersik is part of a dynamic duo with his wife, Sherry Petersik. Together, they are the creative minds behind the popular DIY blog Young House Love, where they share their adventures in home improvement. Their blog led to a New York Times–bestselling book of the same name and successful product lines with major retailers like Target and Home Depot.
John and Sherry live in Richmond, Virginia, with their two children and an enthusiastic Chihuahua named Burger. Their journey into the world of blogging started back in 2007, when they began documenting the updates to their first home. Since then, they have renovated seven homes and completed over 3,000 projects. Although blogging was once their full-time job, they have both returned to their roots in writing and marketing.
In their personal lives, the Petersiks have made significant changes, including downsizing from a large suburban home in Richmond to a smaller house by the beach in Northwest Florida. Their new home is just a few blocks from the Gulf of Mexico and offers a simpler, more relaxed lifestyle.
John and Sherry continue to share their love for DIY projects and home renovation through their blog and other platforms, always bringing their unique style and passion to everything they do.
