Experience

Asia is a freelance writer and editor with more than nine years of experience covering food, cannabis, and lifestyle topics. She fell in love with food journalism while working as managing editor at Vegas411 from 2020 to 2025, where she assigned and edited stories on Las Vegas restaurants, covering everything from hole-in-the-wall taquerias to celebrity chef steakhouses. Asia's love of food writing deepened after a temporary move to a remote area with limited restaurant options pushed her into the kitchen. Now she's on a mission to try a new restaurant or recipe every week.
