A school-based educator and the first @NOLAPSchools candidate in 138 years to qualify by petition not payment.
New Orleans, LA
Joined April 2020
As the first school board candidate to qualify by petition in more than 100 years, I just raised more small dollar contributions than any school board candidate in District 2. This is a testament to the work I will continue to do for our students. #AsyaForNOLA #NOLAed

So many of you have helped this campaign make history and for that I will be forever grateful!
I hope that each of you always chooses to dare greatly because you, our kids, and our community deserve the triumph of knowing high achievement.

Thank you for coming on this journey with me — for canvassing, for phone banking, for text banking, for sending videos, for donating, for fighting with me and for so much more.

No matter what, trust that I will continue to be in service to this city and the children who are yet to experience an education system that matches their potential.

In speaking to our neighbors in District 2, I got to talk to neighbors about how much we can invest in raising the bar for what is expected of our elected leadership and how much we can invest in providing more opportunities for our kids.

This campaign has been a blessing because I have had the opportunity to learn from so many brilliant minds in service of creating an education system that honors the New Orleans community and offers equitable options for all students. #NOLAed #WontStandBack #WontBackDown

I am not a pawn. I am not a token. And I am not someone who can be bullied into standing back or backing down when it comes to the kids who count on me to fight for them. Because the truth is that this campaign has always been about our kids and our community.

I have always been curious about why things exist as they do and serious beyond my age about getting sincere and true answers to my many curiosities.

It’s my birthday! My mom says I’ve had the same personality since I was a baby. I am decisive, focused, loving, and consistent. #AsyaForNOLA #NOLAed #Vote121 #WontStandBack #WontBackdown #GeauxVote

As the only campaign run by an educator working in our schools every day, we want to wish the captain of our ship a happy birthday and big congratulations on a fight well fought for our students and our community. Polls are open...let’s do this, y’all! 💪🏾

Since then, we’ve become the only school board campaign to earn its place on the ballot by community petition signatures rather than payment and we became the campaign with more grassroots donors than anyone else in this race.

Happy Birthday, Asya! 🎉 When we launched this campaign for school board, Asya insisted that integrity, hard work and gratitude be the the center of all we do. + #AsyaForNOLA #NOLAed #Vote121 #WontStandBack #WontBackDown #GeauxVote
