As an aspiring novelist, Asia hopes to publish her first fantasy novel soon after graduating from college. Her writing draws inspiration from the everyday, focusing on small moments and ordinary interactions to uncover the deeper truths within them. She wants her stories to encourage readers to pause, reflect, and consider the world around them, especially the subtle forms of injustice or prejudice that often go unnoticed. While fiction is her passion, Asia is also continuing to explore the full scope of her Communications major. She is interested in both the creative and technical sides of the field, and how storytelling can be both artful and impactful across different platforms. Although she does not have a fixed career path yet, she is excited to keep learning, writing, and discovering new ways to shape ideas and share them with others.
Asia has been involved in organizations such as Alliance of Black Women, and 2025 Homecoming Executive Council, The Center for Health Advocacy and Wellness, The Big Event, and The Goat House Farm.
Lamb with any side.
Asia is interested in researching injustices that are hidden within unconventional mediums where people might not expect them. In 2024, she explored this through a research project on the prevalence of orientalism in Hollywood, using the movie and book Memoirs of a Geisha to highlight how such narratives can reinforce harmful stereotypes.
Under the supervision of faculty mentor Tara Hackett through UROP, Asia did research focusing on three Victorian petit point tapestry purses, analyzing their fibers, hardware, and designs to trace their evolution and historical significance. By examining elements such as synthetic dyes, metal clasps, and chained straps, she was able to date the purses to the late 1800s, a period marked by major shifts in fashion and material production.
