Hello!

I'm Dylan Tsao

I am an Intern at SymptomTrace implementing a 5G ZTP workflow in embedded Linux and developing AI-based radar signal processing for medical IoT. Also, I have graduated in December 2024 with a B.S. in Mathematics & Computer Science from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. In my off hours, I am building DrinkEase and Neuralbook.
