Hi! I'm Edward L Hardison III
I'm a developer and student in Nashville, TN, currently studying Electrical & Computer Engineering at Tennessee State University. Harditainment is my development studio for website and application development for local businesses in the Birmingham, AL and Middle TN area! I enjoy being able to go into these businesses, learn their stories, and really get a feel for what they have and how I can bring more people to it.
I've done it all from engineering coursework, hands-on simulation research, political campaign tech work, and software projects, web games, and virtually any project that I find fun.

How I work
Every project starts with a written quote outlining scope, timeline, and price before any work begins, followed by a deposit and milestone-based payments. I keep clients updated with regular check-ins and a working preview throughout the build rather than a single reveal at the end. See Services & Pricing for how that breaks down.
