BACKGROUND

Breaking down the user experience gaps

GreenSight is a desktop tool that uses AI to generate quote appraisals for pre-owned electronic devices. It’s used by B2B businesses who manage large volumes of inventory, ranging from enterprise trade-ins to warehouse resellers.


CLIENT STANDUPS

The original dashboard, while powerful, felt unintuitive and difficult to navigate. My goal was to reimagine the experience with a more streamlined interface that better aligned with the fast-paced workflows and mental models of high-volume users.

  • Redesigning the GreenSight quoting platform to look and feel more modern, sleek, and technologically advanced. The goal is to move away from a plain, internal-tool aesthetic to a visually impressive, user-friendly experience that appeals to both internal and external users. 


THE PROBLEM

GreenSight’s users work fast. Really fast. They rely on this AI tool to give them pricing quotes for hundreds of devices a day. But the interface made it hard to understand how a quote was generated, how confident the system was, and what to do next.

OUR CORE NEED

Given that GreenSight’s quoting tool _____________________ …

How might we improve the quoting tool to create a visually impressive, user-friendly experience that appeals to both internal & external users?


ROLE + TIMELINE

As a design lead for this project, I helped produce the overall design system to maintain consistency throughout the app. The main flow I worked on was when a user creates a new quote.

In addition to design, my role included spearheading weekly design meetings to generate ideas, cultivating a collaborative and creative environment as well as communicating with the client to ensure the and application designs are meeting their goals.

RESEARCH

USER SURVEY

Getting to know our industry

To better understand where users were getting stuck, I conducted a mini UX audit and reviewed internal notes and feedback from real customers. I also looked at dashboards from similar SaaS tools — including B2B inventory managers, financial platforms, and pricing engines.

3 key insights emerged:

  1. Clarity builds trust. Users were hesitant to accept or act on a quote if they didn’t understand how it was calculated.

  2. Users scan, not read. Dense copy and unprioritized data slowed users down — which adds up when reviewing 1,000+ quotes.

  3. Actionability was buried. Core tasks like flagging or approving quotes took too many clicks or weren’t immediately visible.

Connecting with Other Students: The majority (37 participants) communicate via text messaging or social media.


IDEATION

In order to design a map-first experience to streamline event discovery, creation, and engagement, we started brainstorming with the main pain points our client expressed.

01

How might we make event creation more enticing to encourage user-generated content?

02

How might we incentivize class chat participation to foster real-time connections?


WIREFRAMING

After gathering insights from our user research, we moved into the wireframing phase to begin visualizing solutions for College Sauce's redesign.


MOODBOARDING

Exploring Design Decisions

During Week 2 of our redesign process, our team immersed ourselves in creative exploration through moodboarding and dot voting to establish the visual and functional direction for College Sauce's transformation.

Each team member gathered inspiration to help visualize the map-centric experience we wanted to create for college students. This exploratory phase helped us identify design elements that would make the app feel both professional and engaging.


DESIGN SYSTEM

We developed an interface design system based on our research insights and client input. User interviews revealed that many found the original branding uninspired and outdated. To address this, we introduced a bright, fresh, and inspiring color palette that enhances engagement and visual appeal.


PROTOTYPING

Bringing College Sauce to life

After refining our design concepts and information architecture, we moved into high-fidelity prototyping to create a tangible, interactive version of our vision for College Sauce.

REFLECTION


Special thanks to Cal Poly Iter8

If you made it this far – thanks for reading! Here’s what I learned during this project:

01

Clear Vision & Strong Systems

Designing for B2B also sharpened my eye for edge cases, efficiency, and simplicity in high-stakes workflows. I learned to think in systems, not screens — and to balance usability with clarity, especially when AI is part of the experience.

02

Working with Technical Constraints for Design Decisions

Communicating directly with the client taught me how to push back when needed -> balancing feasibility, timelines, and quality while maintaining a positive relationship.

WHAT’S NEXT

This redesign is currently being built out in collaboration with GreenSight’s dev team. I’m also continuing my work with them to design and implement their newest Scan-for-Value feature — a cross-platform tool that allows users to instantly scan devices for real-time appraisals on both desktop and mobile.

Our lovely team!
