Chance was born and raised in Missoula, Montana, where he developed a strong connection to the outdoors and a passion for staying active. He graduated in May 2024 with a Bachelor of Science in Exercise Science from the University of Montana—right in his hometown. This summer, he plans to take the next step in his journey by applying to physical therapy school, where he hopes to turn his lifelong interest in fitness and health into a career helping others move and feel better.
His curiosity about the human body—especially its anatomy and functionality—grew from years of playing sports like basketball, football, and javelin, as well as from his deep passion for fitness. That passion continues today in the gym, where weightlifting is his favorite way to challenge himself physically. When he’s not lifting, you’ll likely find him outside enjoying the sunshine—wake surfing and swimming on the lake, floating the river, or catching a sunset on a hike.
Chance also enjoys keeping his mind active by learning new things. Right now, that includes studying Spanish and teaching himself how to play the guitar. He’s excited to continue learning and growing, both personally and professionally, as he pursues a future in physical therapy.
