About
Hey there! I’m Hashim Mbita, a passionate UX Designer & Web Developer, Graduate from the University of Dar es Salaam, with a major in Computer Science.
"Embracing every opportunity and saying yes to new experiences, for I only get one chance in life."
My journey into technology started early, fueled by a curiosity to create and a drive to understand how things work. This passion led me to pursue a degree in Computer Science at the University of Dar es Salaam, where I developed a strong foundation in web development, software engineering, and creative problem-solving. I found immense joy in translating ideas into functional digital products that make an impact.
My journey continued at the KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Sweden, where I delved deeper into Design Thinking and Human-Centric Design. This experience expanded my perspective, teaching me how to design with empathy and create meaningful user experiences. Whether it's developing websites or optimizing user interfaces, I’m always seeking new ways to bridge technology with creativity. I'm driven by the desire to make technology accessible and user-friendly, and I’m excited to apply my skills to projects that push boundaries and deliver value.
