About Me
Hi, I'm Jacob
I build AI that thinks, plans, and acts — not just responds.
My focus is Agentic AI and RAG systems powered by memory, tool-use, and multi-step reasoning.
I ship production-ready LLM applications on AWS, architected for speed, reliability, and enterprise scale.
Blending research and engineering, I design AI agents you can trust from real-time decision systems to voice-enabled assistants.
Currently at Arizona State University, I am focused on cloud-native AI systems and next-gen autonomous intelligence.
