Sophia was born and raised in Southern California. She’s always loved art, drawing inspiration from anywhere. Being a soft-spoken individual, art has been a voice for Sophia throughout her life as another means to express herself. Many of her art pieces and characters are an extension of who she is and allow her to be confident and expressive in herself.

Moved by early Disney films, she decided to pursue a career as a traditional 2D animator through her education at the Laguna College of Art + Design. During her studies, she discovered a passion for visual development and illustration. Since graduating in 2019, she has had the pleasure of working in both illustration and animation.
