ChenXinDaniel Han Page 1 of 3 Chen Xin Daniel HAN Phone: +61 413 691 318 | E: Chen.X.Han@student.uts.edu.au Education 2010-2012 High School Certificate, Killara High School 2012-2014 Bachelor of Science (Mathematics) at University of Technology, Sydney. 2014-Current Bachelor of Engineering (Electrical) and Bachelor of Science (Mathematics) at University of Technology, Sydney. Work Experience 2011-2014 Volunteer Translator for Minecraft Chinese forum mcbbs.net, helped translating third party modifications and wiki content, usually including those that relate to engineering and specifically “redstone” which is a mechanism where the player is able to build anything as simple as logic gates to functioning 32-bit CPUs. During the time when I was active, almost 100% of third party modifications were translated by me which allowed me to enhance my written Chinese and ability to communicate with people from different cultures. 6/2015-9/2015 Waiter at New Shanghai, constantly dealt with customers from a diverse background, fast paced environment and communication with customers to fulfil their needs is essential. Skills Profile Electronics Hobbyist – I have been tinkering with electronics since the age of eight, the nature of working electronic appliances has always been a mystery to me. Lately I have been studying professional software such as Xilinx and MPlab. I also started to build Arduino based electronic projects. Photographer – I am an advanced amateur photographer and I am extremely knowledgeable of how photographical equipment function, from lens design to how the SNR firmware and A/D converter influences images to the engineering facts behind DSLR bodies. Translator – I am a fluent English and Chinese speaker with the ability to translate between the two on spot. I often help clients to communicate with other clients where there exist language barriers, both casually and professionally. I have 4 years of translation experience and constantly seek to learn new tactics. Mathematics Major – I am able to apply mathematics in the real world to gain more conceptual understandings to sophisticated models relating to electrical engineering. Projects 2012-2013 “Flashbrain”, is a project where my team used Labview to provide interfacing to a memory-based game. Breadboard prototyping was also involved to build a scoreboard and the flashing LEDs. Communication with peers and tutors was vital as our project was extremely hard for first year students to implement. We obtained 98%. 8/2015-10/2015 “Bambui’s Energy Crisis”, a project for “Engineers Without Borders Challenge” where I enhanced my report writing and formatting skills along with communication skills between my teammates and the tutor through the exchange ofideas and research results. 8/2015-10/2105 Introductory Digital Systems assignment 2 and 3 further enhanced my knowledge on MPlab, Xilinx, CPLD and PIC programming for electronics prototyping.

ChenXinDaniel Han Page 2 of 3 Interests Photography – I am an advanced amateur, my prime interests include macrography, where I will sometimes take extreme macro photographs of electronics such as highly populated PCBs. I also have skills in post-processing software such as Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop to tweak the images. Lego Mindstorms – I love robotics and have tinkered with Lego Mindstorms in the past. I have built robots that follow lines and push balls into dedicated areas. Lego Mindstorms created the base for my future goals during that time and raised my interest in electrical engineering. Arduinos – I have recently purchased Arduino kits and I am seeking to expand my Maker knowledge and apply the electrical engineering skills I acquired from university to solve real-life problems. Minecraft – I have played Minecraft extensively, specifically the “Redstone” mechanism where the building blocks can form different logic gates, and from basic logic gates I was able to expand to building sophisticated ALUs and CPUs. Sometimes the same electrical engineer approach of truth tables and K-maps are employed; Minecraft can be played as a game, but it is also powerful simulation tool indeed – as common electronics such as seven segment displays and 7400 series basic ICs have to be built from scratch. It is quintessential to understand the theory and fundamentals of these components. Soldering Kits – I have been soldering electronics since the age of 11 and have developed my own tricks when soldering. I enjoy soldering electronic kits and will always choose to purchase the cheaper “bag of components” rather than pre-soldered development boards and add-ons. Transferable Skills Team Work – I am have developed team work skills through my waiter job and engineer projects in universities. In the project “Bambui’s Energy Crisis”, I played an essential role of initialising discussion, analysing engineering resources and putting the report together with my team members. Leader Skills – My leader skills were enhanced throughout the subject “Engineer Communications” where I established checklists and Gantt charts to assist with my team’s contribution towards our formal report. I also provided feedback to research results of my peers in terms of reliability and date integrity. Numeracy Skills – I have developed extensive knowledge of professional statistical simulation software such as Minitab, SPSS, Arena and Microsoft Excel throughout my university mathematics degree and personal interest with statistics. I will often gather engineering data from reputable websites and apply analysis myself. Personal Motivation and Interest – I am always open yet critical to new ideas as I learn through reflection. I have interest in the newest electronics and professional electrical hardware such as oscilloscopes, function generators and multimeters. I have assisted people both online and in real life with purchasing consumer grade equipment by explaining the specifications in a colloquial and elaborative manner. This also applies to photographic gear. Communication Skills – I have the ability to listen carefully, paraphrase concisely, take critical notes and write professionally. This is best illustrated in my recent academic reports where I was required to paraphrase studies and use different styles of sentences to keep the report interesting. My reports are thoroughly cited and carefully referenced. During meetings, I usually jolt down critical points and listen carefully to my peers and tutors.
