Hello!
I am Jacob Johnson, currently working towards an M.S. in Computer Engineering at Weber State University in Ogden, Utah. I am most interested in Hardware Design. I am looking for an Internship or Full-Time job for Summer 2025!
I graduated with a B.A. in Linguistics from the University of Utah, and for a time after that I remained there as a Computer Science PhD student, advised by Ana Marasović of UtahNLP, with whom I researched the application of theoretical/experimental linguistics principles to natural language processing. I left after realizing that academia is not what I was after for my career, and later realized that I also am not interested in an industry AI career. Some chance encounters fostered my interest in Computer Engineering, which I am now pursuing.
Outside of school I enjoy tinkering with computers, reading books, and swimming.
