aSIA IS WHAT i LIKE TO CALL THE EPITOME OF A WOMaN...

I met Asia in the summer of 2009, where we were barely beginning any kind of adventure. Much less the ones that lead us to this interview.

Asia has always managed to set the bar high, for herself, and then conquer it. She's a 25 year old entrepreneur, the Marketing & Communications Coordinator for the NJ Coalition to End Domestic Violence and the Founder of Empowering Her, a leadership program she created to guide young women into becoming confident leaders. She's accomplished a number of things within the past year; accepting an offer to travel to Nepal, kicking off her program this fall, designing her own Femme Festival to celebrate free women and sisterhood and announcing her purpose to to eradicate Violence Against Women. She's one of the few who have discovered her purpose and clearly is in love with it

We can go through her impressive resume for ages, but the most impressive thing about Asia is that though she's proud of her accomplishments she is also proud of her relationships. She's a sister, a daughter, a friend and so much more. In her journey to change the world she also makes time to create change for those she holds dear.

Her presence remains humble and warm while at the same time commanding respect.

I basically sum her up as a Badass Fairy.

Asia is hER

mEET THE fOUNDER Of
