Career
Pascual's earliest acting experience was in the student theatrical group "Teatro Tomasino" of the University of Santo Tomas. His early television credits include his stint as Kuya Miguel in ABS-CBN's educational show ATBP and as one of the many teen stars in GMA Network's musical variety show That's Entertainment.
