Travis was born on Sunday, May 12, 1991 in Cincinnati, Ohio, the son of Timothy and Rachel (Whitaker) Sullivan Jr. Growing up, Travis enjoyed the outdoors, whether hunting, fishing, riding, or helping friends and local farmers. Travis graduated from South Dearborn High School in 2009, where he enjoyed wrestling. He received a wrestling scholarship to Mount St. Joseph University, but after attending decided to serve his country. Travis proudly served in the U.S. Army and spent a tour in Afghanistan with the Combined Team Uruzgan (CTU) 3 stationed at Multi National Base Tarin Kot as Military Intelligence. Travis worked as a Union Lineman, out of Local #1393. He attended The Bridge of Hope Worship Center on Sundays with his family and enjoyed spending time with “Buzz”, his chocolate lab.
