Project Overview

As part of Greenlight’s expansion into education, I co-led the design of Greenlight for Classrooms, a national financial literacy platform that empowered teachers to integrate money lessons directly into their curriculum.

I collaborated with product, engineering, and marketing teams to create a seamless, branded experience outside of the core app—ensuring design consistency with the existing Greenlight ecosystem while addressing the unique needs of educators and students. My work included designing intuitive lesson-planning tools, integrating interactive content from the Greenlight app, and aligning the product's visual language with the company’s broader brand identity.

Objective:
This cross-functional initiative marked a strategic entry into the education space, scaling Greenlight’s mission and impact beyond families to classrooms nationwide.
