Many did not know this but the 6' star grew up struggling to identify a career path between advertising, business and communications majors. In the midst of his second year in school, Chace's mother, Dana Crawford, encouraged him to pursue acting. Until today, he credits her for making him take this step. In fact, his mother states that "it was a practical move", based on a career aptitude test he had taken in high school which revealed that he was best suited for a career in the performing arts.

Right after looking for a proper management, he got signed to an acting agency and then gave full priority to acting. In 2006, Chace appeared in Lifetime's television movie Long Lost Son, where he plays the son of Gabrielle Anwar's character. That same year, he starred alongside Steven Strait, Taylor Kitsch, Sebastian Stan and Toby Hemingway in the horror/thriller movie, The Covenant.

The year 2007 was a big break for Chace. He became one of the leads in CW's drama Gossip Girl. Among his cast members on the show are Penn Badgley, Leighton Meester & Ed Westwick.
