$ whoamiHi, I’m Tanner Harkin— a Computer Science student with a lifelong passion for technology. I started exploring code at eight years old with HTML, and since then, I’ve expanded into PHP, Java, and a broad toolkit of languages and skills. While I’ve taught myself a lot over the years, I believe in the value of formal education and am pursuing my degree to deepen my expertise and unlock new opportunities.
My interests go beyond code— I’m fascinated by both digital and physical security. Whether it’s lock-picking, RFID hacking, or buffer overflows, I love digging into the nuts and bolts of how things work (and how they break).
