It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Dr. Garrett Vonk, President of Keiser University's Flagship Campus.

Dr. Vonk dedicated nearly two decades of service to Keiser University, holding numerous leadership positions throughout his distinguished career, including serving as Campus President of both the West Palm Beach and Fort Lauderdale campuses. His unwavering commitment to students, faculty, and the university community leaves a lasting impact across the institution.

As President of the Flagship Campus, Dr. Vonk cultivated a vibrant and thriving campus community grounded in academic achievement, athletic excellence, and student success. His visionary leadership was instrumental in expanding student enrollment, launching new athletic programs, developing innovative academic offerings, and forging strategic partnerships with community stakeholders that strengthened the university's presence and impact.

Dr. Vonk was a highly respected leader whose genuine care for students was evident in every interaction. He took great pride in knowing many students by name and was deeply invested in their personal and professional growth. His influence on the Flagship Campus cannot be overstated. A constant and supportive presence, he could be found at academic ceremonies, athletic competitions, student events, and campus gatherings, always championing the achievements and aspirations of the Keiser University community.

Dr. Vonk's leadership, dedication, and compassion have left an indelible mark on Keiser University. He will be deeply missed by colleagues, students, alumni, and friends.

Stories that shape our legacy #Keiser50

After losing her father, Sydney Nau discovered the purpose she had never imagined for herself. Inspired by the nurses who cared for him during his illness, she left a career in luxury sales to pursue nursing and dedicate her life to caring for others.

As a Keiser University Nursing alumna, Sydney now serves as an Assistant Nurse Manager on a specialized liver and transplant progressive care unit while continuing her education and advocating for both patients and healthcare professionals.

As part of our Hometown Heroes series, we're proud to spotlight individuals whose stories continue to inspire their communities and embody the spirit of Keiser University.
