It’s finally official – Mitch Joel and Twist Image, formerly just of Montreal, are taking over Toronto by storm. The new Twist Image office (affectionately dubbed “TiTO”) was announced on August 8th.
Mitch talks a little about the crew heading up TiTO on Six Pixels of Separation:
I’m thrilled to say that Leigh Himel is heading up Twist Image in Toronto (aka TITO). The office space is on Front and Spadina, and there’s plenty of room for us to hold some small community and "un"events (so look for those in the coming months). Leigh has a rocking Blog called, Leigh’s Blitherings, that I have been following since we both sat on a panel on social media a few years back (where her knowledge of the space blew me away). Leigh was formerly the Vice President of Strategy and Innovation at Blast Radius and before that was the Vice President of Client Services at Maclaren McCann Interactive. She’s also dabbled in new media entrepreneurship. Overall, it’s a perfect fit and I look forward to hanging out a lot more with Leigh and helping our clients connect in these digital channels.
Also, Mitch, Leigh and their new Creative Director, Virginia Magaletta will be hiring for several positions, including Account Directors, Account Executives and usability/interface professionals. I’m guessing that if you want more information about the positions, you could email Mitch at info@twistimage.com or take a look at the careers section on the Twist Image site.
Congratulations to Mitch, Leigh and Virginia! I see many many good things in your futures! (image source: screen shot, me, from twistimage.com)















many thanks for the kind words. Slight correction (or addition) to the Blog posting. I’m only one of four owners at Twist Image. My other business partners are Mark Goodman (CEO), Mickael Kanfi (ECD) and Aubrey Rosenhek (Managing Director).
We’re all thrilled about Twist Image Toronto and working with Leigh and Virginia has been awesome.
