In 2010, Rameez chose to make Canada his home, beginning in Camrose, Alberta, where he managed a family-owned hotel. Over the next 15 years, he worked his way up through the hospitality industry, gaining invaluable insight into operations, leadership, and customer experience.

Today, Rameez brings all that knowledge and passion into Divine Creations Catering. Together with his business partner Joakim Gomes, whose culinary expertise elevates every menu, they’ve built a company that blends innovation, flavor, and heartfelt service.
