Hey, I'm Asabe...
"I started out as a lawyer, but my path took a different turn. Now I work across film, television, music, and live events as an actress, director, producer, singer, and host. I also write, translate, develop content, and plan events - basically, if it involves storytelling or bringing people together, I am interested."
