About Me

Hello, My name is Catherine Msengezi

I am a newly qualified nurse and currently work as a cardiology nurse. I started Nursingjourneyguide.com because I wanted to share my nursing journey and what I have learned along the way with other people pursuing nursing as a career.

During my studies, I have always wanted to learn from others who have walked the same journey as me.

Studying nursing and being a nurse can be challenging and requires support from others who have walked the same path.

So I invite you to walk with me in your nursing journey and I guarantee you that I will share tips and advice that I have learned along my nursing journey.

I am indebted to my Husband Davison who is one of my biggest supporters. He is always cheering me on and is always helping me with the technical aspects of running Nursingjourneyguide.com.

I love exploring things in nature this can be going for a walk or just noticing birds singing.
