A Little About Me
Humble Beginnings
To Infinity and Beyond
Growing up in Austin, TX, the son of first generation Filipino Americans, my house was always alive with music. My family's affinity for karaoke lead me to my first love; singing. Paired with my hyperactive nature, a vivid imagination, and a community of people who saw my greatest potential long before me, the stage became my home and life has been all the sweeter because of it.
Where I've Been
I graduated from Florida State University with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Dance. While at FSU, I performed principal roles in new and classical ballets such as Peter Pan, The Nutcracker, A Christmas Carol, A Midsummer Night’s Dream, We Will Rock You: A rock ballet to the music of Queen, and a restaged presentation of There is a Time: originally choreographed by Jose Limon.
Since college, I have traveled the high seas as a dancer and aerialist for Royal Caribbean International, performing for audiences in Australia, Tasmania, the South Pacific Islands, and the Caribbean. I've been in regionally and nationally televised campaigns for companies like the Florida Lottery, ITV Media, and the Walt Disney Company.
I have also had the pleasure of performing for guests from around the world as an entertainer for Walt Disney World Parks and Resorts, as well as Universal Studios Florida.
Most Recently...
I had the absolute honor of traveling the country with the 30th Anniversary, National Broadway Tour of Miss Saigon, presented by Cameron Mackintosh Productions.
An absolute DREAM COME TRUE!
