Surrounded by nurses her entire life, Kristine Tuttle found her calling in a career that blends science, medicine and meaningful connections. Her experience in the College of Nursing’s ABSN program taught her discipline, resilience, and how to think critically.

When she felt overwhelmed as a student, Tuttle turned her notes and study materials into resources that helped her classmates, eventually launching Nurse in the Making, a business dedicated to helping nursing students find clarity in the chaos.

Today, she’s living her own advice: juggle each task, give it your full heart, then move forward.

“I want Nurse in the Making to be the place you come back to when you're overwhelmed…where you can look at a simple chart or breakdown of a disease or med, actually understand it, and take a breath.”
