about

I’m a student at the University of Wisconsin-Madison studying computer science and mathematics. My interests broadly cover low-level systems, particularly programming languages and compilers, but I also enjoy studying computer networks and operating systems.

My professional experience is comprised primarily of internships as I am still a student. I’ve have the wonderful privilege of working in a handful of different roles across various companies, including:

  • Two Sigma, incoming (Quant Dev)
  • Cisco (Consulting)
  • Morgridge Institute of Research (Sysadmin / Infrastructure)
  • Mandli Communications (App development)

Outside of school/work, my main hobby is puzzle-solving. I like coding games, logic puzzles, and whatever these are called.

I like meeting interesting people — if you want to say hi or grab lunch with me, send an email at hello at emilyyao dot me. If you’re on campus, feel free to drop by during my hours at the Undergraduate Projects Lab.
