Art is not a mirror held up to reality,

but a hammer with which to shape it.”

-Bertolt Brecht

Growing up in a family of artists, his cellist mother would bring him to her rehearsals and performances of the Philippine Philharmonic Orchestra. It ignited his passion for music and theater and exposed him to different genres at a very young age; fascinated by opera, ballets, symphonies – he knew he was meant to be a musician.

He learned how to play the violin at the Philippine Research for Developing Instrumental Soloists (PREDIS) at the age of 9 under Ma. Rosario Molina-Cruz. Renowned Opera singers Pablo and Camille Molina became his voice teachers. Since then, he hasn't stopped playing and singing in different productions, orchestras, concerts, and performances.
