The Concierge Team
Designing Exceptional Experiences from the Inside Out
The Concierge Team at the Siebel Center for Design is a student-powered group that goes far beyond customer service. This dynamic team plays a vital role in shaping how people experience SCD—through programming, marketing, and everyday interactions that reflect our values of creativity, inclusivity, and human-centered design.
Made up of two integrated groups—Programming and Marketing—the Concierge Team contributes to real-world projects that enhance SCD’s offerings and user experience. Students on this team don’t just gain experience; they build professional portfolios, develop leadership and communication skills, and learn how to work collaboratively across disciplines.
And that collaboration is by design. The Concierge Team is intentionally multidisciplinary, bringing together students from a variety of majors, colleges, and backgrounds. This diversity fuels innovation, mirrors the complexity of real-world teams, and helps us serve a broad range of audiences across campus with greater empathy and insight.
