Chase Welch believes the best decisions come from open exchange and the disciplined comparison of ideas, a conviction he applies to his work as principal of In Extremis Consulting LLC, a strategic advisory firm serving the defense, firearms and aerospace industries. Drawing on nearly two decades as an infantryman, instructor and industry professional, he helps clients navigate complex markets where clarity of thinking matters more than conventional credentials. Raised in rural Virginia, Mr. Welch was shaped by mentors who modeled discipline and perseverance. He carried those lessons into the United States Marine Corps in 2007, serving in the infantry with 1st Battalion, 6th Marines, and deploying twice to Afghanistan. He then spent more than a decade as a contract instructor supporting the Defense Intelligence Agency, Marine Corps Special Operations Command, Naval Special Warfare, the U.S. State Department and federal law enforcement. Mr. Welch credits his trajectory to a love of learning and a refusal to quit. Looking ahead, he intends to deepen In Extremis Consulting’s footprint while building a more sustainable balance at home, and to teach the next generation to live by his company motto: “Transfixus sed non mortuus.” OWNER Rikki Winters Consulting, Homefront Hustle Interlachen, FL RIKKI WINTERS CHASE WELCH
