Mahmoud Ramezani ( mzani )_ Principal _ Creative Director
Since 1985, I have had the opportunity to work with many of the most respected names in the industry. My design skills, post-graduate education, work experience, mastery of traditional design principles, and the use of modern technology, clearly place me at the head of my field.
I’ve developed cutting edge design solutions for a wide variety of media including print, responsive web design, digital display, signage, packaging and human scale sculpture. It is this experience and ability that ensures the effective translation of a brand across all potential touchpoints and media.
Starting in 2014, I took on the teaching role at Sheridan College, in the VCA and FAAD, I continue to work as a part time professor at Sheridan. This incredible position has allowed me the opportunity to expand my horizons and grow in a mutually beneficial inspiring environment.
I am currently a partner and the Creative Director for M_ZANI Inc., which I founded in 1990. Prior to working with Sutton Javelin, [ Sutton Compliance Communication ] I held senior design positions in many of Canada’s leading design and communications firms, including Bryan Mills Group, MDC Corporation, Belladonna Communications and Tudhope Associates (now part of the Interbrand Group). Client side (in-house) experience includes IBM and Olympia & York (Canary Warf).
A brief sampling of my portfolio includes Print and Digital design and development for Abitibi-Price, RioCan, Four Seasons Hotels, Coca Cola, Unilever, MDC Corp., Sun Life, Dofasco, RioCan REIT, Investors Group, Great West Lifeco, Manitoba Telecom Services and Toronto Hydro. Corporate identity/logo design work includes H&R REIT and the Laurier School of Business & Economics. (Wilfrid Laurier University).
