about me

I’m Ashitosh Hiremath, an IT Engineer turned User Experience Designer based in Toronto.

I hold a Master’s in Digital Media (Specialization in UX Design) from Toronto Metropolitan University, a bachelor’s in Information technology from the University of Mumbai, and have successfully completed multiple certifications and UX/UI bootcamps Canada and India.

I advocate for a structured approach to solving design challenges, fueled by my enthusiasm for UX Research, Design Systems, Visual Design, Accessibility, AR/VR, and AI, because I have a strong appreciation for processes and systems.
