When I was in high school, I’m learning piano and guitar but not drums. I started playing drums not because I love playing drums but because I wanted to join our high school band who’s in need of a drummer. From there, I felt that I’ll enjoy drums way more. so, my journey starts there. 

I started late learning the drums but its never to late to learn an instrument. I started playing professionally in 2000 back in the Philippines. I played in a variety band most of my career playing in weddings, corporate shows, birthdays, concerts playing all types of music. I love listening to incognito, the brand new heavies and D sound. 

Now I’m working as an educational assistant and will be teaching part time here at Mar-Schell’s music to share my drumming experience for over 15 years.
