Sullivan joined the team’s football operations department on July 12, 2004, having previously served as a scouting intern during Green Bay’s 2003 training camp. 

Sullivan played his junior and senior seasons (1998-99) as a wide receiver at Gardner-Webb University in Boiling Springs, N.C. As a senior, he was named to the all-conference team after leading the Bulldogs with 43 receptions. Previously, he played at the University of South Carolina from 1995-97 before transferring to Gardner-Webb. 

Sullivan attended high school at Fork Union (Va.) Military Academy, where he was an all-state defensive back his junior year, pacing state players with nine interceptions, and then an all-state receiver as a senior. Sullivan lettered twice in football, while also receiving two letters each in indoor and outdoor track. As a senior, he was all-state in track as a member of the state-champion 400-meter relay team. 

Following his college football career, Sullivan served as a student-assistant receivers coach at Gardner-Webb for one season. Though officially listed as a student assistant, he actually served as the primary position coach for the receivers. 

Sullivan obtained a B.A. degree in social science from Gardner-Webb in December 2000, and then worked three years (2001-04) for GMAC’s sales and credit administration departments before joining the Packers’ staff. 

His father, Jerry Sullivan, who has 40-plus years of coaching experience, currently serves as Louisiana State’s senior offensive assistant/passing game coordinator.
