Better known by his first two initials, IJ’s first professional break was playing keyboards for the vocal group 17:28, where he was mentored by respected musical director Mon Faustino. As he made his rounds playing live in various establishments and events, more and more people took notice of his talent. He was invited to play for several of the country’s premiere artists such as Christian Bautista, Jay-R, Top Suzara, Freestyle and many others.

Audie Gemora, esteemed theater actor and president of STAGES, entrusted IJ to be Musical Director of a major musical production, Footloose, which featured Jay-R and Iya Villania as lead actors. This project not only made him the youngest Musical Director of his time, but also gave him the opportunity to venture into the other aspects of music. At a very young age, IJ has gained the respect of many significant personalities in the Philippine Music Industry. He now has become Musical Director for a number of shows, concerts, and events. He has also gone into producing and arranging music for various artists. Has arranged for Philippine Idol, Rachelle Ann Go, and Jay-R to name a few. Currently he is working closely with Christian Bautista, Philippine Idol’s Gian Magdangal, Sheree, Top Suzara, and the Sabado Boys.
