Chad grew up as “the shy, artsy kid” in a small town in central Kentucky. At the age of 5, he was selected to perform in his school’s Christmas show. He fell in love with the stage and never wanted to leave. He chased his dreams and discovered that dance was what made him “feel the most me.” This passion brought Chad to New York, where he performs all over the city. Chad also believes the charity work he did helped him through his HIV diagnosis.
