Eli also used to race cars and play video games to keep the thrill in life. One of the games he loved playing was Final Fantasy. He was all excited about the release of Final Fantasy XIV.
However, the game disappointed him badly. He made a short video reviewing it and vented all the frustration that it has caused him. The video went viral and became the start of his journey in digital media.
After his reviewing video went viral, Eli started learning new film techniques. He also started learning and experimenting with visual effects. He looked up to Freddie Wong and his Rocketjump videos for learning new techniques.
His friend, Gallagher Scott, also helped him with his videos. They started making more short reviewing videos every week.
Soon, he started getting more viewers, which led him to secure a job in Power Moga, a mobile gaming company. While Eli was still working there, he got a chance to meet with Freddie Wong. He then was offered a job At the Rocketjump. Eli took the job and then moved to LA without thinking much.
Once he was in LA, he called his long-time online friend Jarred Taylor and his team members from the Black Rifle Coffee Company (BRCC) to a Christmas party.
After meeting with the members, Eli started working for the company. He was responsible for the visual effects in the movie Range 15.
He also shot many commercials as well as created the online series Drunken Debrief for the company.
After working for some time, Eli officially joined the BRCC team in Utah. Without any hesitation, Eli joined the BRCC team and started working with Mat Best on creating content for the company.

While all this was going on, Eli also got the chance to host a TV show on the History channel called Brothers in Arms. He co-hosted the show with his best friend from his military days, Vincent Rocco Vargas. The show was not a hit, but Eli saw it as an experience, which gave him more confidence to work in front of the camera.
With this new confidence, Eli started appearing in many videos of the BRCC. He even shares stories in the Drunken Debrief.
Besides his career in the digital world, Eli also co-owns the Bandits Armory in Ogden, Utah, with his best friend, Rocco.
