At just 11-years-old, this talented philanthropic young lady heard a call and answered it with music. By founding Asia Hickman Music, Inc, an independent 201© (3) nonprofit organization dedicated to giving underprivileged children, ages 5-15, the opportunity to find their voice through music, Hickman brought life of many through sound.
Beginning her journey by teaching family and friends during school breaks, Hickman knew that she was inspiring others. Growing up in a military family, Hickman spent most of her life abroad, taking up both violin, piano, and saxophone.
