For Navpreet Dhanju, nursing is more than a career path, it’s something close to her heart. After helping care for her grandmother for more than five years, Navpreet developed a strong sense of compassion and a meaningful connection to caring for others. That experience shaped her perspective on health care and inspired her to pursue a career where she could make a lasting impact on people’s lives.

That really held a true meaning to me – that taking care of others is something I truly love doing, and that is something that nursing accomplished for me.

At UC Blue Ash, Navpreet found a nursing program that helped turn her passion into purpose with support from faculty, hands-on learning experiences, and opportunities to connect with professionals in the field. Through shadowing opportunities and clinical rotations, she developed a vision for her future and continues to build toward her long-term goal of working in anesthesia.

While her focus is always on academics, Navpreet got involved on campus as a Student Ambassador and a member of the Student Nurses Association. Through these leadership opportunities, she developed an ability to build genuine connections with students that reflects the same care and commitment that drive her passion for nursing.
