His Virginia Senate committee assignments included Commerce and Labor, Courts of Justice, General Laws and Technology, and Local Government.[1]

Born in Wilmington, Delaware, Sturtevant grew up in Spotsylvania and Chesterfield Counties, graduating from Midlothian High School.[2] He then attended Catholic University in Washington, D.C., and received a B.A. degree. He later attended what was then called George Mason Law School (now Antonin Scalia Law School) in Arlington, Virginia and received a J.D. degree.[3]

Sturtevant is an active member of the Virginia State Bar. He practices with the Rawls Law Group, concentrating on complex civil litigation, including medical malpractice.[4] From 2012 until his election to the state senate, Sturtevant served on the Richmond School Board.[5][6]

In 2023, Sturtevant won the Republican nomination for State Senate in the newly redrawn 12th district, defeating incumbent Amanda Chase and another challenger Tina Ramirez.[7]
