Overview

I was a design intern at AbbVie BTS (business technology solutions), and I have been interning there since May 2023. Throughout my time at AbbVie I have primarily worked on the Unity team. The Unity team is a team that works with the company design system and react library. When I joined the design system has already been majority designed out, however the iteration process does not stop there. After I joined the team, I was responsible for creating design tokens and variables break down.

What I Built

Design tokens that takes the Unity design system and allows it to be used across different AbbVie brands. Responsible in decision direction for the company wide design system tokenization and variable breakdown for 200+ variables. Designed end to end user research methodology for Unity, targeting developers and designer user groups. Designed the AbbVie Design Center of Excellence website for over 400+ UX practitioners.

Problem

Understanding if design tokens and variables can be utilized across different AbbVie brands and products.

Solution

Created variables across 5 different AbbVie brands while collecting user insights to apply to these variables and design system.
