Robert Tu is a service design director and multidisciplinary design technologist with 11 years of experience crafting data-driven interfaces and strategic experiences across financial services, government, and telecom. He blends a background in electrical engineering and business development with deep expertise in data visualization, UX/UI, and design thinking to turn complex datasets into actionable, aesthetic products and dashboards. As a leader at TD and former PwC UX lead, he has built and mentored cross-functional teams to deliver research‑led solutions that improve user efficiency and business outcomes. He also runs a freelance studio and founded a wearable-tech startup, bringing both agency-style craft and entrepreneurial rigor to engagements. Comfortable with tools from Tableau and JavaScript to Illustrator and InVision, he bridges visualization, prototyping, and production.
