I’m Nicole Cingolani and I’m the Media/Maker Commons Coordinator at University Park. I consult with faculty and students on multimedia projects and assignments, schedule and teach Media/Maker workshops, and coordinate the 3D printing class projects. I began working at Media Commons in January 2020, but I’ve been employed by Penn State since 2010. My past work experience is grounded in information technology, with a focus on computing and large format specialty printing.

I have a wide range of interests that include storytelling through photography, photo editing, travel, volleyball, humanitarian engineering and social entrepreneurship. By nature I am curious and I am happiest making and creating with my children. I enjoy dreaming up new ideas, learning new methods of creation, spinning up art projects and bringing them to life.
