project overview
GreenSight came to Cal Poly Iter8 for a quoting tool redesign. I co-led a design team of 6 with Maxine Ancheta through the first phase. Two contracts later, I'm still designing for them. Three phases, from product to brand: a web platform redesign, a shipped mobile app, and a brand refresh for the ITAD conference floor.

client testimonial
"We've been working with Sophia since she co-led a team of six at Iter8. She helped build GreenSight's design system, and a lot of what we've built since sits on that foundation. She's delivered our marketing materials and the mobile app alongside Maxine, for two years now."
"For a team of engineers, having someone who brings a real design perspective from outside our own thinking has been invaluable."

what is greensight?
GreenSight uses AI to identify, price, and resell used electronics. The more devices that get recirculated, the fewer that end up in landfills.
A company retires a device.
Scans, grades, and prices it.
Resold, refurbished, or recycled.
Fewer devices in landfills.

quoting tool
Redesigning the quote from two angles
The problem
The Quoting Tool is GreenSight's web platform for pricing used devices. Every action in the old interface triggered a pop-up that pulled technicians out of their workflow. Many of those pop-ups looked nearly identical, making it easy to lose track of where you were in the process. Completing a single quote took around 40 clicks.
our foundation
Setting our team up for success
Maxine and I began the project by building a shared Notion page to frame the project's scope, goals, and deliverables. We also organized a FigJam board for research, hypothesis generation, and exploration allowing project stakeholders to comment and leave live feedback outside of our scheduled design reviews.
4 weeks in figjam
Research audits, hypothesis prioritization, ideation sketches, Crazy 8s, and live client feedback throughout.
what we uncovered
Modals interrupted the workflow
While documenting the quoting process, we found a consistent pattern; modals interrupted at critical steps. When editing items or setting prices, the modals blocked the quote table, forcing users to work from recall rather than referencing device specs or marketplace data.
the legacy quote flow
40+ Clicks per quote
ideation
Exploring solutions
GreenSight's scope covered two products: a redesign of the existing quoting flow and a 0→1 dashboard.
Kotone's hypothesis set the direction: stop the set prices modal from overloading users. Mine was about what replaced it, keeping device and pricing information available at every step. Maxine proposed the form, a side bar modeled on Notion's.
how might we statements
We ran Crazy 8s to land on the new quote flow. Technicians could price a single device while keeping the full quote and the prices they had already set in view.
the new quote flow
While Maxine, Logan, and Edrick ran Crazy 8s on the new quote flow, Kotone, Niki, and I ran Crazy 8s for the dashboard. We worked from our team moodboards, dot voting, and client comments to shape the data visualizations. Because there was no existing view to redesign, we started by asking Mackenzie for a list of which metrics belonged on the screen and who needed them.
the fix
A side panel cutting clicks from 40 to 15
We redesigned around an expandable sidebar that kept the quote table visible while giving each task room to focus. Drawers felt too cramped for the data technicians needed mid-quote, and full-page editors broke context.
Seamless editing, quoting, and exporting
Technicians price devices directly from the sidebar while the full quote table stays visible on the left.
the dashboard
GreenSight also needed a dashboard for technicians and managers to track quoting activity, team performance, and environmental impact in one place. I led a team of two designers to build an overview featuring customizable widgets, from environmental impact to units-per-hour trackers, letting each user optimize for different goals.
a design system built to grow
Our goal was to revitalize an interface built without design input. We built the system with design tokens and reusable components so the team could ship consistently across Quote Engine, Scan-for-Value, and the dashboard. Later, I extended it when I refreshed the identity for print.
scan-for-value
Appraising devices with AI
GreenSight brought Maxine and me back for a second contract to design Scan-for-Value for web, mobile and tablet. SFV (Scan for Value) is a tool that helps technicians make smarter decisions at intake by scanning devices, identifying specs, market data, and suggesting whether to resell, refurbish, or recycle.
web first, then mobile
We designed the web version first to integrate with GreenSight's existing suite and give admins visibility into scanning activity. The web platform provides a dashboard of all scanning sessions, user management, and a direct connection to the Quoting Tool so work flows between products without starting over.
the scan flow
With the web experience set, we extended the same flows to mobile. Technicians scan a device, the app identifies it, autofills the specs, then surfaces complete device details without manual entry. Multiple devices can be processed and reviewed in a single session.
Take a photo of any device to identify with artificial intelligence.
Specs, category, and model fill in automatically.
Process multiple devices in a single session.
pricing and session stats
Each scan returns a real-time appraisal that suggests whether to resell, refurbish, or recycle based on current market conditions. Technicians can monitor devices processed per hour, total session value, and environmental impact during a session.

the brand refresh
From production to print
refining the identity
GreenSight asked me to refresh their identity alongside the print work. I redrew the logo using the headline font from the UI and turned the G into an arrow, carrying the recycling loop into the mark itself. I introduced a new color palette and built a centered stacked version alongside the horizontal, so the mark could hold up across a wider range of applications.
extending to print
I carried the refreshed identity into print for the ITAD conference, designing a standing banner, a hanging banner, and a brochure. A system built to hold up from screen to trade show floor.
Special thanks to the greensight team
Special thanks to the GreenSight team: my co-lead Maxine Ancheta, and Edrick Wong, Nikita Shankar, Logan Watson, and Kotone Takada, who showed up across three contracts and built the system with me. To GreenSight's founders, Mackenzie Kettwig, Jake Daniels, and Diego Curiel, thank you for the trust and the continuity. Especially to Mackenzie for the design reviews and for handing me the brand refresh. The kind of trust that comes from seeing the work over time.

in conclusion
Designing for impact
Three contracts, sixteen months, from product to brand. The design system Maxine and I built in the first phase is still GreenSight's foundation. It's what let Scan-for-Value ship consistently. It's what carried the brand refresh to the conference floor. Build the system once, well, and it keeps paying off
