Rick Kauffman

Associate Director of Digital Communications

Rick manages digital communications and social media for Temple Law, helping shape how the school’s work is presented across multiple platforms. He writes and edits newsroom stories, oversees social strategy, and serves as the law school’s photographer. Rick’s role bridges storytelling, visual content, and institutional messaging.

Rick enjoys photography, Philly sports, and staying active through volleyball, disc golf, and biking. He is also interested in gaming, technology, live music, and travel, and enjoys spending time with his partner, her daughter, and their cats.

Prior to working at the Beasley School of Law, Rick worked as a photojournalist and news reporter, producing written and visual coverage of news, sports, events, and high-profile court cases under tight deadlines. That experience sharpened his storytelling, editorial judgment, and ability to translate complex information for broad audiences. It also built the visual and social media skills Rick now uses to create and manage content across Temple Law’s platforms.

Rick has earned a Bachelor of Arts in Photojournalism from Temple University.
