Founder Story

Asia is a storyteller shaped by two worlds: the stage she fell in love with as a young girl and the healing spaces she stepped into as a woman.

A lifelong creative, she discovered her gift for performance in high school when a simple audition became a defining moment. She read a poem aloud and the words flowed as naturally as breathing. Her drama teacher winked and told her she had a gift. From that moment forward she pursued storytelling with passion, majoring in Drama with a minor in Creative Writing and spending countless hours building worlds on the page.

But like many dreamers, she was encouraged to choose a path that promised stability. The advice to pursue a “real career” dimmed a light that once woke her every morning with excitement.

Asia pivoted into psychology and went on to become a Licensed Clinical Addictions Specialist and a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, dedicating her life to helping others heal. Through her clinical work she witnessed the profound power of personal stories, recovery, and transformation. Her book, Cry. Exhale. Heal. My Journey into Inner Healing, reflects both her personal and professional journey toward restoration.

Yet the call to create never left.

It returned in the glow of stage lights while watching her niece perform with the same fire she once carried. Sitting in the audience beside her daughter, then four years old, she watched as the curtain fell and her daughter ran toward the stage with wide, hopeful eyes. One afternoon her daughter looked up and said with complete certainty, “Mommy, you should name your company Dreams Come True.”

The name itself was already taken, but the message felt prophetic. The moment revealed something deeper: a legacy of storytelling that refused to disappear. The dream that once lived in her had clearly passed through generations and was waiting to be reignited.

That moment gave birth to Dream Again Story Works, a creative studio dedicated to developing cinematic screenplays and original intellectual property for film and television. Asia focuses on emotionally driven storytelling, immersive worlds, and narratives that explore legacy, identity, courage, and redemption.

Asia is an Award-recognized screenwriter specializing in emotionally grounded, character-driven storytelling for all audiences. Winner at Cannes World Film Festival and Semifinalist at Outstanding Screenplays Competition.

With a foundation in psychology and trauma-informed care, Asia brings depth, empathy, and emotional realism to storytelling that resonates across generations.

Her work is guided by one unwavering belief.
