Asia has recently completed her time at Mayfield Secondary School for her vocal program. She has been attending IEC, where she is currently a part of the Praise and Worship Team, the Media Team, the Drama Ministry and formerly a part of Creative Ambassadors.
She applied to four programs, three for a Bachelor’s in Sociology and one for a bachelor’s in music and was accepted into all four; however, after much thought, consideration and prayer, she has decided to pursue her education in Vocal Music at Wilfrid Laurier University.
