About Erik

Service is the
through line.

Operational discipline, curiosity, and a commitment to the people who depend on the work.

03 / The person behind the work

An unconventional path.
A consistent standard.

Erik Garwick

My career started in large-scale operations, where service, accountability, and follow-through mattered every day. From Disneyland Resort to city leadership and enterprise IT, I’ve learned how to bring structure to complex environments and help people work through problems.

Today, I apply that experience to technical support: communicating clearly, documenting the work, following structured workflows, and keeping users moving. My interest in cybersecurity builds on the same foundation—reliable systems and careful decisions.

I care about the person depending on the system as much as the system itself.

04 / Cybersecurity

Building a practical
security mindset.

Hands-on learning with network, firewall, and monitoring tools complements my enterprise support experience. My focus is understanding how systems behave and how to investigate what needs attention.

  • pfSenseFirewall and network configuration
  • WiresharkPacket inspection and network analysis
  • NmapHost discovery and service enumeration
  • Wazuh / SIEMSecurity monitoring and event investigation
  • Kali LinuxSecurity tools and lab-based learning

Good work starts
with a conversation.

I’m interested in IT support, service desk, desktop support, cybersecurity support, and operations-focused technology roles.
