I’m Rita Pessoa, a former Pharmaceutical Sciences graduate now studying Computer Engineering at the Polytechnic Institute of Coimbra (ISEC).
I discovered my passion for data, systems, and technology while developing my final pharmacy project - and haven’t looked back since.
💡 I love working with data, exploring databases, ETL processes, and information systems that make businesses smarter and more efficient.
