Sullivan started wrestling when he was just three years old. Coming from a family of wrestlers, he had a solid support system and enjoyed the experiences the sport brought him. 

After competing for Oklahoma City University, Sullivan joined the Army to be able to represent his country and become a part of something bigger than himself. It's an honor for him to be able to represent the USA as both a Soldier, and an Athlete, especially after having watched a lot of past and current WCAP athletes compete. 

In Sullivan's mind, there's no sport quite like wrestling. A demanding sport both physically and mentally while providing valuable life skills.
