For Sibylle Schempf of SSD Consulting, designer and marketer of luxury designer goods, HOME is a state of mind rather than a place. Born in Germany, her childhood was spent in Bombay-India, Barcelona-Spain, Paris-France and Caracas-Venezuela. New York City was HOME since she received her BFA in Fine Arts at Parsons School of Design and her MBA in International Marketing at Stern School of Business, New York University. Her strong ties to Europe have allowed her to satisfy client assignments on both sides of the Atlantic

Clients rely on her comprehensive know-how of international design and management issues to pro-actively identify trends, initiate targeted market development and design programs in line with company business goals.
