About Me

Ryan Hackney

I'm an Electrical and Computer Engineering graduate from The Ohio State University with a Google Cybersecurity Certificate, passionate about technology, security, and building things - whether it's secure systems, performance cars, or a thriving farm.

Currently seeking opportunities in cybersecurity and software development.

When I'm not coding or studying security, you'll find me working on my farm raising goats, chickens, and bees (that's where the honey comes from!), building high-performance cars (full bolt-on BMW 335i and a Camaro project), or playing guitar with my German Shepherd by my side.

I started this site to showcase my technical projects and sell products from my farm. Everything in the shop is handmade and the honey is locally sourced. Check out my blog for updates on my Camaro build and tech projects!
