Mohammad is a passionate graphic designer and visual storyteller. He graduated from Shiraz University, one of Iran’s leading institutions, earning a bachelor’s degree in visual communication. His journey into the art world began at a young age, inspired by his older brother and fueled by his innate talent for drawing.
Throughout his academic career, Mohammad actively participates in festivals and exhibitions, earning academic and regional awards in photography and graphic design. His fascination with visual storytelling led him to experiment with video art during his senior year. Driven by a deep interest in the relationship between media and people, Mohammad focused his undergraduate thesis on the impact of media on identity and social relations. This challenging project provided him with invaluable experience in all stages of video production (concept development, production, and post-production).
After graduating with distinction, as the second top student in his class, Mohammad completed his mandatory military service while continuing to pursue his passion for art. During this time, he learned Maxon Cinema 4D design software, further enhancing his technical skillset.
In the past two years, Mohammad has been working as a designer at a digital commerce holding company, where he has honed his hard and soft skills. His role has introduced him to the world of digital economics and online sales, sparking his interest in UI and UX design. Recognizing the gap in education and industry in Iran, he is eager to leverage academic opportunities to further his knowledge and contribute meaningfully to the field of design.
