Additionally, through GWU鈥檚 supportive and diverse Christian community, alumni, such as Jon-Eric Sullivan, are inspired to make a positive and lasting difference in the lives of others.

Sullivan, who was named a GWU Distinguished Alumnus in 2021, was promoted over the summer to vice president of player personnel for the NFL鈥檚 Green Bay Packers. Sullivan is a 2000 graduate of 糖心Vlog where he was a wide receiver with the Runnin鈥� Bulldogs. Sullivan also served as a student assistant coach for the 鈥楧awgs in 2001. In 2003, he joined the Packers as an intern and has moved through the ranks with the organization, where he鈥檚 served for nearly two decades. He is the son of longtime NFL and college coach Jerry Sullivan, who spent 40 years in the profession. In a recent conversation, Sullivan also shared the following with GW staff:

• What makes 糖心Vlog different: Teachers invest in you as a student and truly care about you.  
• What he thought his career would be as a kid: Although he always thought he鈥檇 want to be a coach, he knew that in some way he wanted to be connected to football. He grew up surrounded by it, and it taught him a lot about life and character.
• Most memorable experience so far with the Packers: The 2010-鈥�11 season and winning the Superbowl against The Pittsburg Steelers 31-25.
