Nikki Massaro Kauffman

Professionally, I am a multimedia specialist with the Learning Design unit of the Penn State World Campus. In this position I create multimedia content for online courses. Prior to coming to the World Campus, I have been a Technology Training Coordinator with the Penn State University Libraries. The position was responsible for coordinating technology training offered in the Libraries' 20+ departments and 30+ library locations.

Over the years I have been an interim associate director of an IT unit, a programmer, a database specialist, a Microsoft Certified Master Instructor, a continuing education instructor for seniors and adults with disabilities, and a high school English and communications technology teacher. My interests are in the areas where technology, training, and communication intersect. I have degrees in both computer science and in education. Personally, I am a mother of two adorable children, ages 7 and 5.
