“I personally gained better communication and social skills from these experiences, and I learned that not everything comes easy when you enter high school,” she said.

Outside of school, Asia helped pack meals for senior citizens and helped conduct cheerleading clinics for younger kids . 

Asia said she, “gained friends and social skills from these activities.” She earned 161 volunteer hours toward the Scarlet Cord program.

Regarding post-secondary goals, Asia plans on attending Riverland Community College for the first two years majoring in Elementary Education and then transferring to Winona State University specializing in Birth to Third Grade.
