Design Systems

A look at four design systems: The three systems below show how our team approached full-scale design challenges across very different organizations, and I contributed from early direction through final UI and build. Novartis centered on a gradient-driven language that unified a large product ecosystem and fed into a Storybook-powered CMS. Viatris required a confident editorial system to support a major merger and clarify their mission and global impact. Amgen focused on a calm, wellness-led foundation that stayed lean and adaptable for future initiatives. The broader case study continues with Sanofi, where I carried these learnings forward and refined how the system, branding, and UI worked together.

Across these systems I learned that scalability has to be baked in from the start, with lean tokens, variables, and modules that grow without becoming noise. Documentation only works if it is simple, connected, and searchable. Accessibility and motion have to be solved at the component level so every pattern holds up. Fast prototyping with real components lets teams test ideas early and ship with confidence. And the branding has to sit naturally inside the system so the experience feels both functional and emotionally grounded for the people who use it.
