Jessica Aviles
Tenure-Track Assistant Professor, Industrial Engineering

“The eFellows program definitely played a role in my work. With the travel grant portion of eFellows I was able to attend a conference and go to industry partners to enhance my work in exoskeleton devices. Additionally, the professional development activities sharpened my networking and branding skills.”

“Since starting this program, I have been invited as a panelist at conferences to discuss areas of my research. It’s important to my community, my culture, to see representation in spaces where appearances are rare. This program has opened my world to new opportunities, opportunities that have added lanes to my career path. I’m moving in multiple directions that are shaping my future. ”
