I spent a summer as a UX Intern engaging in different facets of design.
Design Systems, Accessibility, Prototyping, Design Thinking
1 Design Lead, 2 Co-Designers, (Engineering + Product in tandem)
Summer 2023
While a majority of the projects I worked on are confidential and protected by NDA, I had the awesome opportunity to make real contributions to internal design systems and evaluate existing designs. The chance to have a real practice in effective design documentation and really lean into my knowledge of accessibility best practices, as well as the chance to really think about how the micro and macroecosystems of a product's design work together, were quite simply put, an awesome experience.
