worked with Andy at Autodesk
“Andy has always displayed a high level of expertise in everything he does. Managing several projects in
parallel, most of which are highly timebound and requiring attention to detail, whilst liaising with and
advising colleagues across different functions and geographical areas on operational consistency and
efficiency. He successfully takes care and attention to include all individual contributors thoughts and
requirements in his work, and responds quickly to identify and fix potential issues that would affect our
business. He is a pleasure to work with and I would highly recommend him for any future role that he seeks
to work in.” July 22, 2010

worked with Andy at Autodesk
“I worked very closely with Andy for perhaps 5 years. We were part of a team that released more than 100
new product titles. Andy was always my go-to guy. If he sees a problem, he takes the initiative to raise the
issue and get it fixed. If I have an issue, he can always be counted on to help me rearch the situation and find
a solution.
Andy has made my job easier, helped to make me look smarter, and our group more professional and
competent. I am going to miss working with Andy, Our group is weaker without Andy, I would rehire him in
a heartbeat.” July 19, 2010

“I have worked with Andy on both positions I have had within Autodesk (Anti-piracy developer and Project
Manager for Maya and Mudbox). His position is strongly related to licenses and product setup for Sales.
During the last 3+ years, I have nothing but good experiences when working with Andy. He is prompt, clear
with directions and able to offer solutions for difficult scenarios. Even though our time zones are in big
differences, Andy is always responsive and ready to help. As the Project Manager of one of the most
complicated products from the licensing point of view, I trust my requests will get done on time when Andy
gets involved. He is always friendly, approachable and professional. Please do not hesitate to contact me if
you need more info regarding Andy.” February 7, 2010

“Having worked in various capacities with Andy Ng over the past 5+ years, he has consistently proven to an
invaluable resource that any manager would be ecstatic to have on his or her team.
Andy’s preternatural attention to detail is only outweighed by his ability to maintain a firm grasp on the ‘big
picture’ for any project to which he’s been assigned.
An indefatigable resource, Andy is more than a ‘value add’ to a team or company, he stays ahead of the curve
with emerging technologies; he’ll look at success benchmarks and adaptability timelines as new processes
are deployed by competitors; he’ll analyze and produce fit/gap analysis to determine whether and when a
process change can be introduced as part of a project or product lifecycle improvement where applicable.
Andy has the initiative, patience and diligence to ‘unwind’ established process paradigms, then propose,
model, engage global team stakeholders and drive to timeline/milestone goals to improve process/product
quality while improving productivity, data accuracy and other key performance indicators, from reporting to
customer satisfaction and beyond. He’ll even build the SharePoint site collection and InfoPath forms to
enable global team engagement as well as upstream and downstream KPIs , project tracking , issue tracking,
approval workflows , reporting formats, and more!
In general, worthy employees in a given company are coveted for the value that they add to the ‘greater
whole’ and are important to the continued success of that company.
Having Andy goes beyond a ‘value add’ – at each level of achievement, Andy will reset the quality bar to a
higher level, then make sure he has the team, the resources, and the tools to ensure success. His friendly,
level-headed approach to problem solving, willingness to listen, his knack for actively engaging each
member of the global team, and Andy’s ability to clearly communicate and present to diverse and divergent
audiences, consistently establishes the foundational elements required to set up a given project for success,
and the follow-through to ensure that, even in difficult times, Andy will manage the process lifecycle to the
finish. ..And even in a quick-deployment project process methodology, Andy adapts easily and can be
guaranteed to ramp-up rapidly.
In short: Andy Ng is a high-level value-add to any company and has my highest recommendation.”

“To Whom It May Concern:
This letter is my personal recommendation for Andy Ng. Until just recently, I have been Andy’s colleague for
the past year. I found him to be consistently pleasant, tackling all assignments with dedication and a smile.
Besides being a joy to work with, Andy is a take-charge person who is able to present creative ideas and
communicate the benefits. He has successfully developed several project plans for Autodesk that have
resulted in increased revenue and cutting labor cost. During my time with Andy, we saw an increase in
productivity and a varity of business solutions . The department productivity was a direct result of the plans
implemented by Andy.
Though he was an asset to our managerial efforts, Andy was also extraordinarily helpful in other areas of the
company. In addition to writing effective training modules for other product managers, Andy assumed a
leadership role business solution, inspiring and motivating other employees.
I highly recommend Andy for employment. He is a team player and would make a great asset to any
organization.

“Andy was a diligent student when he was in Jurong JC. He was actively involved in CCAs and sports and
won medals for his team in the annual house meet. He could do so well not just because he is skillful but also
a great team player. Andy is independent as well as a team player when it comes to studies. Whenever we
had problems with our books, we would come together as a study group to share our knowledge. He
provided good knowledge-imparting skills as much as he could study for himself when we break our study
group during the GCE 'A' levels, and did well. He was also a good leader, being the vice-captain of the house
basketball team. He also led project groups and discussion groups, making plenty of friends during our
school days. I would recommend him for leadership roles for his leadership qualities and knowledgeimparting skills. He could provide plenty of solutions to a single problem and picks things up fast, allowing
him to be a promising leader.” January 14, 2010

aims to give his best, which requires task to be completed at the highest level of quality before calling it done
and completed. Despite all this, he is a fun person to work with. He will not hesitate to get his hands dirty in
order to get the task done and will ensure the slowest team member are up to speed. He is also one of the
most active people in Sheares Hall.” January 31, 2010
