Robert Luke Joseph is a rising senior studying Product Design and Computer Science at Stanford University. He is a Black American born and raised in Atlanta, GA. Robert is passionate about design for its creative and unique ability to inspire, connect, and empower communities (and because it’s fun!). In his free time, he can most often be found cooking, making, or playing video games.

Robert is ecstatic to join Design for Bangladesh as a Teaching Fellow. He believes our interdisciplinary version of design-thinking that integrates programming and policy analysis is a powerful catalyst for transformative solutions and impactful change. Robert’s primary reason for wanting to be a part of Design for Bangladesh is to help create opportunities for growth, learning, and prosperity, just as design education has done for him.
