I think it’s a Lynx Spider.
You got it! She’s a Green Lynx, Peucetia viridans. The coolest thing about her is that she can change colors to try to match colors and patterns she sees near her. It takes awhile, I don’t know how long, if you want to experiment with that. Her base color is pale green with a little yellow on the legs and lots of black leg hair. She has a partial color change in the photo, there’s reddish brown on her back.
