Surabhi Siddaiah Portrait

About Me

I'm Surabhi, a UX designer who came to this field through curiosity and stayed because of the questions.

7 years across UX, content, marketing, and design have taught me one thing clearly: good experiences live at the intersection of clarity and empathy. I think about the user, the story, and the system all at once.

I'm a generalist in the truest sense. I've redesigned apps, built design systems, written case studies, led brand campaigns, and spent five years photographing food for 40+ brands. Each of these things taught me something: it made me someone who sees the whole picture before touching any single part of it.

I thrive in lifestyle industries, wellness spaces, and deep, complex layers. The kind of problems where psychology matters. Where the environment someone inhabits shapes how they feel about what they're using.

I'm process-oriented, deeply observant, and I ask the uncomfortable why as well as the how.

When I'm not designing, I enjoy reading and writing. Philosophy, psychology, physics, health, fitness, art, history are my rabbit holes. I could spend hours unraveling them, always searching for the deeper 'why' behind human behavior.
