[edit] Biography and Career

Vargas graduated in A.B. Management Economics in Ateneo de Manila University.

He started his career as a member of ABS-CBN Star Magic (formerly Star Circle) acting workshop Batch 10. From there, he had his TV role in the drama soap opera, Pangako Sa'Yo, from the same network. But this Ateneo de Manila graduate was acting in theatre long before the talent scouts lured him into television.

Undoubtedly, his breakthrough role came in the film Bridal Shower by Seiko films in which he was able to display his acting potential as a drama actor. This along with the move to the GMA Network opened a slew of opportunities for the young actor.

This move has seen him featured prominently in three notable shows in Philippine television: the daytime drama series, Daisy Siete, and the fantasy series, Encantadia, (as Aquil) and Etheria (as Amarro).

He recently played the leading role in GMA daytime series Muli which stars the Malaysian actress Carrie Lee and Marian Rivera.
