A versatile musician with roots in both jazz and classical guitar, Sully began playing as a teenager before earning a scholarship to study Jazz Studies and Classical Guitar at Virginia Commonwealth University.
After graduating, Sully relocated to Las Vegas in the mid-1990s, where he quickly became an in-demand guitarist within the city's world-renowned entertainment scene. His work included performances in major productions and showrooms, backing acclaimed artists and appearing in productions such as KÀ, shows featuring David Cassidy, and performances with Sheena Easton.

In 2002, Sully expanded into original music by writing and producing albums with his rock band The Sullied.
