Hi, I'm Charit Patel,
a UI/UX designer who enjoys turning complex ideas into simple, intuitive digital experiences.
With a background in Computer Science Engineering and UX Design training from Humber Polytechnic, I combine technical understanding with a deep focus on human-centered design.
What Drives Me
Beyond Design
When I'm not designing, I'm exploring new tools, studying product patterns, or discovering creative inspiration around Toronto.
My Approach
I'm driven by curiosity, empathy, and the challenge of making digital products feel effortless. I love simplifying workflows, refining interactions, and creating interfaces that solve real problems while feeling thoughtful and human. I'm always learning and always excited for the next design challenge.
From curiosity to career — here's how I found my path in design
The Beginning
I first came across UI/UX during my Computer Science Engineering studies. It immediately caught my attention because it combined creativity with logic. For the first time, I felt like this was something I could truly enjoy building a career in.
Exploring the Field
I spent a lot of time researching the field — how it works, the tools designers use, the career scope, and what the day-to-day looks like. The more I learned, the more confident I became that this was the right path for me. Everything about the field felt exciting and full of opportunities.
Learning the Basics
I started learning Figma by watching YouTube tutorials and practicing on my own. I also completed certifications from Google, Accenture, Georgia Tech, and others, which helped me understand design thinking and user-centered design. This phase helped me build a strong foundation and understand how real products are designed.
Practicing & Sharing
I began creating simple UI screens and posting them on Instagram. Getting feedback from other designers helped me improve quickly and understand what good design looks like. This was when I learned the importance of iteration and staying open to feedback.
First Step into the Industry
I got my first 6-month internship, where I worked on real projects for the first time. Seeing my designs being used was a big moment for me — it made everything feel real. This experience confirmed that UI/UX is what I wanted to focus on full-time.
Moving to Canada
I moved to Toronto to study UX Design at Humber Polytechnic. Here, I learned advanced UX methods, design systems, and accessibility, and worked with students from different backgrounds. This helped me grow not just as a designer, but also in how I think about solving problems.
Getting More Hands-On
I completed another internship, working on internal tools and improving user workflows. This helped me understand how to simplify complex tasks and design solutions that actually help people work better. It was a great opportunity to apply everything I had learned so far.
Still Growing
I'm still learning, exploring new ideas, and improving my skills every day. Every project helps me understand design better and pushes me to grow. I'm excited about where this journey will take me next.
The core values that guide every design decision I make
User-Centered
Every decision starts with empathy and real user needs.
Every design decision I make begins with the user. I take time to research, build personas, and validate ideas through testing. For me, understanding real needs, pain points, and behaviors is the key to creating experiences that truly matter.
Simple & Intuitive
I design for clarity, not complexity.
I believe great design should feel effortless. My focus is on stripping away the unnecessary and highlighting what's essential. By simplifying workflows and building clear visual hierarchies, I help users achieve their goals without confusion or frustration.
Visually Engaging
Interfaces that balance beauty with usability.
Aesthetics play a big role in usability. I design interfaces that are not only visually appealing but also purposeful. Thoughtful use of color, typography, spacing, and motion allows me to craft experiences that delight while staying accessible and consistent with the brand.
Iterative Process
Always evolving through feedback and refinement.
I see design as an evolving process. I actively seek feedback, analyze results, and refine solutions. Each iteration brings me closer to the best possible experience, ensuring the product grows alongside user needs and business goals.
