Anusree Raju
is a UX Designer.
Yes, That's me! Hailing from a beautiful green place called 'God's own country,' Kerala, in India, I'm constantly motivated by the design of everyday things. Currently, I am based in Scotland's compact, hilly capital, Edinburgh.
​
With over 6 years of industry experience in UX, I enjoy creating designs which are real, simple, usable and leaves a lasting impact in people's lives. I like to make things that matters to the world and the user. Curiosity, empathy and hard work are the keys to keep my creative self running.
One of my favourite quote which I strongly believe in:
“Design is not just what it looks like and feels like. Design is how it works.”
– Steve Jobs
How I got started in UX
While my early work stint at Infosys as a Systems Engineer, a chance career change opportunity introduced me to the world of UX. After that there was no turning back, my love for UX design work was strongly established.
​
I graduated in India with a degree in B.Tech in Electronics and Communication Engineering. This knowledge helped me drive many technical design projects with ease. As they say every drop counts, I believe every drop of knowledge counts too!
​
I am also a Certified Usability Analyst issued by Human Factors International on August 2015. My credential ID is #2015-5628 and listed here as Raju,Anusree.
What I've been working on
Currently, I started working on a personal project to create a learning website in the field of education which enables users to book workshops or creative training sessions for teachers working in schools in India.

What I'm curious about
I'm curious about the designs around us and the thought process that went into to produce them. I've deep passion for understanding how technology impacts people’s behaviour and influences their habits.
