Biography
After spending his youth in Northern Virginia and graduating from Oakton High School in Vienna, Virginia, Pacheco graduated from the music program at Brigham Young University (BYU). He continues his education abroad in South America and Europe. Pacheco spent two years in Brazil as a missionary for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church).

Career
After auditioning for producer Ric Wake, who then introduced him to Yanni, Pacheco began adding lyrics and additional music to some of Yanni's most famous works, such as "Adagio", "Tribute", "Almost a Whisper", "Enchantment", "Secret Vows" and "In the Mirror". Upon completion of the recordings with Yanni, Pacheco was a featured performer in two PBS television specials, which were broadcast from 2008 to 2010. Pacheco then joined Yanni and his orchestra as a featured performer on a 100-concert tour throughout Latin America, Canada, and the United States.[2] He has twice been a performer on the national broadcast of the Disney Parks Christmas Day Parade on ABC: in 2010 (with Yanni) and 2011 (with Katherine Jenkins).
In 2009, Pacheco relocated to Southern California after being signed to the Disney Pearl Series label, where he wrote the songs that made up his debut solo album. Pacheco has collaborated with many writers under the direction of producer/composer Leo Z (Andrea Bocelli, Josh Groban). For his album, Pacheco recorded with the Philharmonia Orchestra in London at Air Studios.
In 2011, Pacheco did the operatic bridge for the song "Let's Talk About Me" from The Muppets and performed in Chicago's Magnificent Mile Lights Festival Parade and the Philadelphia Thanksgiving Parade.
