Hi. I'm Joel Lopez.
Product Designer / UI Engineer
It is a pleasure to meet you, let's begin your next project.
What started as a hobby in high school, became a passion and an awesome career. I have worked with clients and helped build start-ups for over 10 years. Whether you're looking for someone to build your start-up or you need help continue growing your product or brand, I will become your partner and work hard to make sure we're successful. Additionally, with my skillset and experience I'll be able to help you every step of the way.
What makes me a product designer?
Planning & Vision
We'll discuss your vision for this product. Then, we'll develop a plan and a timeline for the project and figure out any other resources we may need.
UX & Concept
With my experience using Axure and InVision, we'll create initial wireframes to solidify the vision. Then, we'll develop a design concept and have your product take shape.
Execution
After design is finalized, I'll use HTML,CSS, Javascript, PHP, or others according to the original specs to develop the product. We will also start testing to improve the quality.
Analyze & Modify
Once we go live we'll use Google Analytics and other testing software like Optimizely to generate A/B tests and continue to improve conversion and user experience.
Brands that I have worked with:
Gamer's Hive connects gamers from all over the world based on their skillset and likeness in games. It also provides tools to E-Sports manager to easily manage their team and discover new talent.
Mesothelioma is a cancer caused by the exposure of asbestos. The website’s goal was to give patients the chance to connect with specialists across the United States and get the financial help that they need to get medical help and take care of their families.
AddictionCenter was built to provide a portal of help for patients to get the treatment that they need. Users can call one of the partner treatment centers and help guide the users to find the best treatment possible for their addiction.
But wait! There's More...
You can see more samples of work at my dribbble account. I’m always trying new stuff out, but what I truly enjoy is receiving feedback on the projects. It made me the designer I am today.
I love telling my story and learning from others
I had the opportunity to teach at Southwest Technical College, as well as, tutor and mentor teams to create effective and successful products. However, the greatest value that I took from these opportunities was the amount of knowledge I learned from those I taught. I would love to be at your next conference and speak about my skills or my story, or travel to your company and mentor a small team of designers / developers.
Invite me for your next event / meetup.
I’ve been working with web products for over 10 years. The best part of it: I never stopped learning. Everyday I discover something new and I get more excited about this never ending industry.
