Chase began his modeling career about two years ago at the behest of friends who urged him to consider the profession. He took their advice and enrolled in modeling school at Lisa Maile in Orlando, Florida. Since then, he has appeared in several ads, commercials and runway shows.
“I have done work with the WB Daily Buzz and Golf Weekly performing TV fashion modeling. I have also done three commercials including Hyundai, Banco Popular and Cheap Guys Computer repair. Print modeling I’ve done includes work for UrbanBody.com as well as Caribbean Resorts Clothing line. I have also participated in runway shows for McDonald’s, Prime Outlets and Xtreme Clothing.”
Chase has already achieved success in a fickle business, but the end is nowhere in sight as far as he is concerned. “I’m fine with rejection because it’s such a big part of the industry. You just have to realize that the career-making job might be just around the corner. You can’t be complacent about the present, and you always have to be looking ahead for the bigger job.”

This model has prospered primarily because of his work ethic. “You can never take anything for granted, and you have to be willing to work hard. I work out pretty much everyday doing either weight training or cardio.” Chase also plays recreational tennis, beach volleyball and football in order to stay in prime modeling condition.
Aside from modeling and working out, Chase enjoys many extracurricular activities and hobbies. “I love music, sports, cars, clothes and reptiles.” Yes, you read that right – reptiles. Chase keeps both a python and a gecko as pets. They might not be the most traditional of pets, but we all love the cuddly little Geico gecko, right?
Modeling is extremely important to Chase, but he does not allow the industry to consume his life. “My life goals are to be successful, healthy, and to make sure that my family always comes first. In my spare time, I’ll unwind by relaxing on the couch and playing video games or watching TV. If I’m with my friends, we’ll do anything from dinner to concerts and partying.”

Chase is proud to be a part of On Display Men because the website is a great venue for him to display his work, and Chase is a big believer in networking. He also had a message for his fans: “Thanks for your support and belief in my work. Without a fan base, someone in this industry is nothing.”
