Meet Eli Garrett
Eli has spent his career making technology work in demanding places, from live music to theme parks to corporate campuses. Today he brings that experience to businesses, churches, and non-profits as the founder of Garrett Consultants.
One person who understands the whole system
Most technology providers specialize in one layer. Eli has worked across all of them, from the microphone on stage to the network and cloud accounts behind it. That’s why Garrett Consultants treats your technology as one connected system.

How Eli got here
- Live music
Started where failure isn't an option
Eli began his career in professional audio and video in the music industry, working on productions for some of the biggest acts in music. Live shows have no second takes, and that standard has stayed with him.
- Themed entertainment
Systems that run all day, every day
He went on to work in themed entertainment for some of the largest theme parks, where AV systems have to perform reliably for huge crowds, show after show.
- Corporate AV
Bringing the work in-house
Working in-house for a large corporation, Eli took on the AV work the company had been sending to outside contractors. That eliminated the need for those contractors and saved the company a significant amount of money.

Founding Garrett Consultants
Eli watched the AV world and the IT world merge, and saw clients confused about which company to call. So he founded Garrett Consultants to handle all of it: audio, video, networks, cloud, and IT support, under one roof.
