Hi, I am Khadejia Viveros.
I'm a front-end developer, designer and data analyst with an M.S. in Computer Science. I build small, complete products from the first sketch to a working app, and I explore datasets to find the story in them.
My background in technology, supporting users and troubleshooting problems, taught me to start from what is actually going wrong. My goal is to use data and technology to investigate problems, uncover insights, and support better decisions.
Two sides, one craft
I work between interfaces and insight.
Front-end developer and UX designer
ThreadQ, Itiner, Louvrelet, Clearity and 2048: I design the look, write the code, and pick the simplest tool that fits, from React to plain JavaScript. My UX design projects, Basil & Thyme and Krypto, show how I work from style guide to finished screens, and my UX/UI design internship put that process into practice in Figma.
Data analyst
SQL, PostgreSQL and Tableau: I explore real-world datasets, identify trends, and communicate findings through interactive dashboards.
How I work
The habits behind my front-end projects.
Start from a real frustration
ThreadQ, Itiner, Louvrelet and Clearity each began with something I noticed using existing sites: messy topics, plans that are hard to change, collections that are hard to search, and checkers that only tell you whether something passes.
Choose the simplest tool
React Context instead of a state library, no framework or build step for Itiner, plain JavaScript for Louvrelet, my own color math instead of a package for Clearity, and no UI, state or animation libraries for 2048. I can explain why each one fit.
Be honest about trade-offs
I label estimates as estimates, and I documented that accounts stored only in the browser are not production security instead of pretending they were.
Accessible by default
All five front-end projects work with a keyboard and respect reduced motion settings. Clearity adds skip links and 44 px touch targets, 2048 adds colorblind patterns and screen reader announcements, and Louvrelet and ThreadQ announce changes and errors to screen readers.
Toolbox

Away from the keyboard
Outside of work, I'm usually listening to music or watching a show or movie. I like fantasy stories with magic and supernatural elements, especially when the characters stay with me after the story ends. I also enjoy games and puzzles that make me think, learning about other cultures, and trying new foods.
