About Me
Welcome! I'm Edward Hadnett, currently pursuing a BSc (Hons) in Computer Science (Cyber Security) at the University of Plymouth. Alongside my academic studies, I'm a dedicated powerlifter and a reserve for the England team. I train in the gym four days a week, applying the same discipline and focus that I bring to my academic and professional goals. I've secured 3rd place in the deadlift at the British Powerlifting Championships. With a strong passion for Information Technology, I'm committed to continually expanding my knowledge and skills through various certifications and hands-on experiences such as the Google Cybersecurity Certificate. I strive for excellence in everything I do and am excited about making a meaningful impact in the cybersecurity industry.
