Max Lopez

UX Researcher & Designer focused on reducing decision friction in digital experiences.

I help businesses turn confusion into clarity. Guiding users to move from browsing to confident action without hesitation.

What I Solve

I’m a UX researcher and designer with a focus on how people make decisions online.

My work centers on one question: “What's stopping users from moving forward?”

Through research, testing, and iteration, I identify where trust breaks down, where information gets lost, and where users hesitate and I design solutions that remove those barriers.

In my recent work with a local catering business, I helped restructure their website experience to:

  • Make pricing easier to find
  • Clarify service options
  • Reduce the need for back-and-forth communication

The result: faster decisions, stronger trust, and a smoother path to booking.

How I Approach Design

Clarity over complexity

If users have to think too hard, something's wrong.

Research before assumptions

Decisions are backed by real user behavior.

Trust is designed

Visual polish + clear information = credibility.

Iteration is the work

The first version is just the starting point.

Beyond the Design

Outside of design, I'm someone who values growth, self-awareness, and showing up consistently. I don't just aim for good design, I aim for meaningful improvement.

Let's build something people can trust.

If you're looking to improve how users experience and interact with your product, I'd love to connect.
