Born and raised in Ranchi, Nandini completed her schooling in her hometown. Her academic pursuits led her to Pune, where she spent four years earning a bachelor's degree in Chemistry with first-class distinction from Bharti Vidyapeeth College of Arts, Science, and Commerce
During her school and college days, Nandini showcased her active and smart personality, actively participating in various events due to her passion for music. Her graduation marked the beginning of her journey back to Ranchi as she prepared for the next phase of her life.
In 2006, life took an unexpected turn when Nandini participated in the Miss Ranchi Beauty Pageant, winning the title of Miss Ranchi 1st Runner Up. However, amidst the celebrations, a health crisis struck. In June 2006, Nandini's laughter-filled atmosphere turned into panic as she faced a sudden deterioration in her health. Diagnosed with neurocysticercosis, she spent 15 days in the hospital, facing a challenging recovery.

Determined to pursue her studies, Nandini secured admission in M.Sc. Chemistry at MS Ramaiah College in Bangalore. Unfortunately, health challenges resurfaced after a year, forcing her to return to Ranchi. Undeterred, she found solace and support within her family and decided to continue her studies at Birla Institute of Technology (B.I.T.), Mesra, Ranchi, where she completed her M.Sc. in Applied Chemistry with first division.
Nandini's educational journey continued as she pursued B.Ed. from St. Xavier's College, Ranchi, securing an impressive 82 percent. She then ventured into teaching, a profession she continues to excel in.
Married in 2018 in Vadodara, Gujarat, Nandini is now blessed with two children, a boy and a girl. Despite the health challenges she faced, Nandini's story is one of triumph over adversity. Through meditation, yoga, and unwavering determination, she not only regained her confidence but also refused to let health issues hinder her dreams.
