About Joe
I'm Joe Hackman, a lifelong builder and technologist with a deep background in manufacturing and a passion for solving real-world problems.
Over the years I've helped companies improve processes, adopt practical technologies, and more recently, connect legacy equipment to modern data systems. My latest focus is on artificial intelligence and how it can drive both business innovation and personal growth.
Joe's Digital Workshop is where I share what I'm exploring — from hands-on projects with 3D printing and electronics to AI tools, open-source ideas, and photography from time spent in the mountains. It's a space for makers, leaders, and anyone curious about progress with purpose.
Let's connect and keep building.
