Siddharth (Sidd) was born and raised in Chicago, Illinois and developed a passion for the arts from a young age: performing in school plays, community skits, and singing in youth groups and choirs. Music was one of Sidd’s biggest passions growing up and throughout college, where he sang on and captained an a cappella group at The University of California, Berkeley.

While working his day job as a tech sales recruiter in Silicon Valley, Sidd’s path took him in a direction he wasn’t expecting: while leaving his workplace one night he was scouted by a modeling agent. He signed his first modeling contract and began working in print photoshoots in San Francisco alongside his 9-5. After a few commercial auditions, Sidd’s passion for acting was rekindled and he began training at the Beverly Hills Playhouse SF while beginning to book commercials and theatrical projects. Finding himself increasingly more inspired by acting, less than 2 years later, Sidd decided to switch gears to pursue a full-time career in the arts.

Sidd hopes to redefine what it means to be a leading man in Hollywood and hopes to be an inspiration for South Asians pursuing the arts across the globe.
