Hello!
My name is Ashley Del Valle, and I am the first Puerto Rican woman in my family to pursue a Ph.D. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering with a minor in Business Entrepreneurship from the University of Puerto Rico, Mayaguez, and a Master’s degree in Media Arts and Technology from the University of California, Santa Barbara, where I am currently a fifth-year Ph.D. candidate. I work in the Expressive Computation Lab (ECL) under the guidance of Prof. Jennifer Jacobs, where I explore how technology can enhance creative expression and material interactions in textile craftsmanship.

My research merges digital fabrication with traditional textiles, proposing innovative solutions at the intersection of craft, design, and engineering.

I am currently seeking summer internship opportunities where I can apply my skills in computational design, digital fabrication, and interdisciplinary collaboration while gaining industry experience to drive innovation in art and technology.
