Early life and education
A native of Tomahawk, Wisconsin, Callahan graduated from Tomahawk High School in 2017. In 2023, he enrolled at the University of Wisconsin–Stevens Point, where he is studying for a major in nursing and minor in chemistry. He is slated to earn a Bachelor of Nursing in 2027.
Career
In 2017 and 2018, Callahan worked as an intern in the office of Congressman Sean Duffy. After graduating from high school, Callahan worked as a field organizer and regional field director for the Republican Party of Wisconsin. Callahan was elected to the Lincoln County Board of Supervisors in April 2018, defeating incumbent Kirby Crosby. He was reelected in 2020 without opposition.
On the County Board, Callahan serves on the Administrative and Legislative committee, which oversees county operations, and the Land Services committee, which manages zoning issues. Callahan has been active with the county's Economic Development division, and serves as Lincoln County's sole representative on the regional Central Wisconsin Economic Development Board.
After incumbent representative Mary Felzkowski opted not to seek re-election to the Wisconsin State Assembly and instead run for the Wisconsin State Senate, Callahan announced his candidacy to succeed her. He defeated Don Nelson in the Republican primary and Democratic nominee Tyler Ruprecht in the November general election. At age 21 when elected, he was one of the youngest members of the Assembly.

Callahan resides in rural Wilson, Lincoln County, Wisconsin, near the unincorporated community of McCord, Wisconsin, on the border with Oneida County.
