Building Your First AI Agent: A Practical Guide
A comprehensive guide to creating AI agents that can reason, use tools, and solve complex tasks autonomously.
Full Stack Developer turned AI Engineer, currently exploring the fascinating world of AI Agents, Large Language Models, and building intelligent systems that solve real-world problems.
I'm a passionate technologist with a journey that spans from traditional full-stack development to the cutting-edge world of Artificial Intelligence.
Currently working at Cisco Systems as a Full Stack Developer, I'm deeply invested in learning and building with AI technologies. My recent focus has been on AI Agents, Large Language Models (LLMs), and exploring how these technologies can transform the way we build software.
My academic background includes a Masters in Software Engineering from University of Houston Clear Lake, where I developed a 3D Facial Recognition System using Microsoft Kinect. I've always been drawn to innovative technologies and love the challenge of learning new things.
Beyond code, I'm an award-winning Scout (President Award from late Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam) and a passionate photographer who loves capturing moments and exploring the world through my lens.
Exploring AI Agents, LLMs, and intelligent systems
Java, JavaScript, React, Spring, and modern web technologies
