Chad started his career by landing guest-starring roles on episodes of JAG, Malcolm in the Middle, MTV Undressed, Days of Our Lives and Chicken Soup for the Soul.

Soon after ABC offered Chad a long-term contract and in 2001, Chad received the Soap Opera Digest award for Outstanding Male Newcomer. In 2003, he was nominated for a Daytime Emmy for Outstanding Younger Actor. Then, in 2004 he was nominated again and won a Daytime Emmy for Outstanding Younger Actor. After four years on General Hospital, Chad left and soon after he guest-starred on Friday Night Lights, playing “Lucas Mize” in the “Homecoming” episode.  He also guest-starred on episodes of Cold Case as “Skiz” and had fun yellowing his teeth for Deadwood.
