Pumaren formerly coached the De La Salle Green Archers from 1998 to 2009 where he led them to five men's basketball championships including a four-peat from 1998 to 2001, and his final championship with the team in 2007.[2] As a coach for the Archers, he was known for implementing the full court press defense on opposing teams.

Political career

Pumaren is also a politician from the 3rd District of Quezon City. The district includes the Araneta Coliseum, where majority of the PBA and UAAP games are held, and the campus of the Ateneo de Manila University, the rival of his alma mater, De La Salle University.

He first served as councilor for three consecutive terms from 2001 to 2010. He then resigned as La Salle coach in order to run for the 3rd district's seat in the House of Representatives. However, he lost to fellow councilor Jorge "Bolet" Banal Jr., coming at third behind defeated incumbent Matias Defensor Jr. with 28% of the vote.

He returned to the Quezon City Council when he was elected in 2013. He was re-elected in 2016 and 2019. He ran for representative at the 3rd district for the second time in 2022 under the ticket of Mayor Joy Belmonte, successfully defeating incumbent representative Allan Benedict Reyes.[6] On July 26, 2022, Pumaren was named as one of the Deputy Majority Leaders of the House of Representatives in the 19th Congress of the Philippines.[7]
