STUDENT STORY
From Dental Clinics to Digital Products
How Raíssa followed her gut, changed directions, and found confidence in creation.
Meet Raíssa de Oliveira
Nurse by training. Tech dreamer by heart. Queen of quick pivots.
Raíssa Oliveira, 28, started her career in Brazil’s healthcare system and now works as a dental consultant in Portugal. Calm, curious, and surprisingly funny under pressure, she always felt a pull toward the world of tech—but never quite found her place in traditional coding.
“The biggest impact was finally feeling secure in building real digital products. With no-code, I could actually see things working—and I didn’t need to be a developer to make it happen.”
