I started a music career as a full time keyboardist for show bands in 1989 after a year of being a Graphic Designer for Yamaha Philippines, and Ambassador Cards. In 1995 I had to quit my showband career. I went back to Graphic Design, and also learned to hand code HTML for creating websites. However, my love for music did not stop.

From 1995 to 2001, I continued playing for private band gigs with Culture Shock Band and DOS duo, a piano / singer tandem performing with female vocalist Gina Rondez. I also taught piano lessons from Beginners to Level 4. In 2001, I took a break from the music scene for ten years, and concentrated on my web / graphics design profession. However, music is in our family blood and missed being in the music scene, so I returned in 2012. I had a comeback gig with Gina at South San Joses' The Summit. I also had the opportunity to perform with singer Divo Bayer, and other popular artists in California. From time to time, I also play keyboards for top performers that come here to the States to sing for our Filipino community.
