EDUCATION
From NAND to Tetris Student (Part 1)
April. 2020 – June. 2020
From NAND To Tetris Part 1, Online
Key Modules: Boolean Logic & Arithmetic, Sequential Logic, Machine Language, Computer Architecture,
Assembler (All Completed)
Achievement: Course Completion Achieved with no Supervision from Instructors
•
Found out about the Training from Googling and took up the challenge to use the free resources
available to be a better programmer.
•
Completed ALL projects for the 6 parts of the course without supervision by setting deadlines for
myself and working towards meeting them. This process led me through building logic gates,
sequential gates, Flip-Flops (DFF), RAM, ALU, CPU and Assembler for the 16-bit Hack Computer.
•
For the Assembler project, I took up the challenge to learn a new language – C++. Under a
month, I used C++ to build an Assembler which converts Hack Assembly Language to 16-bit
machine code which work correctly on a Hack Computer.
•
Also, the Assembler project made me improve my OOP skills, and made me work with Hash Table
(with Hashing done by Linear Probing), references, pointers and memory allocation
•
The codebase for the Assembler is available for review online

Associate (Reverse Logistics)
Amazon ED14
Oct. 2016 – Feb. 2017
Skills Highlighted: Entrepreneurial drive, Problem Solving
•
My main duty involved inspecting items returned by customers and using a computer - based
questionnaire to sort the returned items into sellable, unsellable, warehouse deals or refurb.
•
I was expected to be on a learning curve for meeting productivity (and quality) expectations which should
be over 100% after 5 weeks. I however set a personal goal for myself of meeting the 100% before my 4th
week.
•
Using my approachable persona, I became friends with some instructors and more experienced colleagues.
They mentored me and helped me understand the processing steps for meeting expectations quickly.
Personally, I also always worked with a clock to monitor my work speed and observe areas for
improvement.
•
At the end of my second week at work, I had exceeded the 100% expectation while I clocked a
productivity rating of 103% and 120% for the end of the third week and beginning of the fourth week
respectively. I have consistently met productivity and quality targets in my weekly reviews till date.
