  • Today’s employee spotlight is on our illustrious Creative Director, Helen Dear! Helen has been focused on refining Greenlight’s brand identity systems and digital experiences. Read more about her and her design team below: Q: What’s it like being part of a brand that evolves and grows alongside its audience? A: Super fun and fast-paced! As the Greenlight brand evolves alongside its audience, it's critical for our team to stay current on trends  in the design, tech, youth, and parent space through research and user testing. This brings a lot of variety to our day-to-day, as "research" can mean anything from attending a design conference, to surveying real teens their favorite colors and patterns, to experimenting with new software, making sure we're on top of tech and culture trends. Q: As someone overseeing a team of designers, how do you think leading creatives shapes the culture of your department? A: Creatives are naturally curious, inventive, and expressive, so it's a true joy to collaborate with like-minded individuals on a daily basis. I love that the designers I work with have so much respect for each other and the work. The team welcomes inspiration + fresh ideas from everyone regardless of role or level, creating a safe and inviting space for creative development. This helps everyone up-level their design skills and have fun doing so! Q: In your time at Greenlight, what has been your favorite season or iteration of the brand, and why? Can you share a standout moment from this brand evolution and what made it the most exciting part for you? A: In 2024 our brand design team collaborated with ATL-based photography duo Tropico on a multi-day brand photoshoot. We created multiple scenarios and captured genuine, warm moments that reflect the opportunities Greenlight enables for all families. My team applied our learnings from past shoots, and had so much fun working with the photographers and talent to bring our brand vision to life with so much personality!

  • Today we had an engaging and inspiring Women's Day celebration at Greenlight India. The day began with a thoughtful discussion on "Michelle Obama's Manifesto for Change." This session focused on the importance of self-care and the power of realizing our potential. We wrapped up the afternoon with a wonderful lunch, filled with meaningful conversations and great company. It was wonderful to connect with our colleagues on a deeper level and to learn more about each other's journeys. It was a great reminder of how powerful self-awareness can be, both personally and professionally.
