He brings a multi-faceted perspective to the admissions process, having served as a professional admissions counselor with a specific focus on supporting candidates from diverse socioeconomic backgrounds.

Chase specializes in helping students articulate their public service and professional experiences in a way that resonates with elite law schools. He is passionate about demystifying the application process and building the “scaffolding” necessary for students to present their most authentic and competitive selves. As a Graduate Coach, his holistic approach ensures that mentees not only build a strong file but also develop the confidence to navigate high-stakes academic environments.
