Having trained at the only Performing Arts Medicine fellowship in the world at the University of North Texas with leaders in the field Dr. Yein Lee, DO and Dr. Sajid Surve, DO, Dr. DeAsis aims to make Performing Arts Medicine more accessible to all performers. He has a special interest in outreach and education at the conservatory and university level.
His love for music started at age 4 when he began learning violin and piano at the Betty Haag Academy, eventually going on to study violin with Dr. MingHuan Xu, now of the Chicago College of Performing Arts. Outside of music and medicine, Dr. DeAsis enjoys collecting passport stamps, learning new languages, and climbing really tall rocks (both real and synthetic), among many other things. A native of Chicago, Illinois, he is currently based in Fort Worth, Texas.
