Chase Elson
Financial Planner
What is your role at ANTOLINO Wealth Advisors?
I joined ANTOLINO Wealth Advisors full-time in 2026. In my role, I support our advisors throughout the financial planning process, helping ensure each step is completed with accuracy and care to meet our clients’ near‑term and long‑term goals. By contributing to plan preparation, analysis, and implementation, I help strengthen the collaborative experience we provide. I currently hold my SIE and will be pursuing my Series licenses and CFP® certification as I begin my career with the firm.
Tell us about yourself and your family.
I was born in North Carolina but spent most of my life in Canton, Ohio. I have one sibling—an older brother—and we’ve always had a close relationship. I attended a small Catholic high school in Canton before going on to The Ohio State University, where I earned my degree in Finance with a minor in Consumer and Family Financial Services. Outside of work, I enjoy staying active, cooking, reading, and cheering on the Buckeyes!
Why did you pursue a career in finance?
I pursued a career in finance because I’ve always been drawn to analytical thinking and problem solving. While at Ohio State, I worked as a teaching assistant and tutor, which showed me how much I enjoy teaching, breaking down complex ideas and seeing others gain confidence. Financial planning allows me to connect the dots between thoughtful analysis and real‑world impact, using both structured and outside‑the‑box problem solving to guide clients through important decisions. I’m motivated by the chance to make a meaningful difference and help people feel more secure about their financial future.
What do you do for fun?
In my free time, you can usually find me watching sports, working out, or spending time with family and friends. I love exploring and trying new things — whether it’s checking out a new restaurant or jumping into something adventurous like skydiving. Some of my favorite pastimes right now include running, traveling, playing golf, and discovering new TV shows or movies!
