Isa si Piwee sa mga orihinal na miyembro ng Jeremiah na itinatag noong 1998.
Kabilang ang "Nanghihinayang" sa mga sikat na kanta nila.
Sa panayam kay Piwee ng Kapuso Mo, Jessica Soho noong Hulyo 2014, ipinagtapat niya ang pagkakaroon ng Stage 4 cancer sa tonsil noong 2007, pero gumaling siya matapos sumailalim sa operasyon at chemotherapy.
Idineklara si Piwee na cancer-free noong 2011 kaya muli niyang binalikan ang pagkanta.
