Mini bio
How it started.
Sofia grew up in Florida with Colombian family roots. Dance classes began at three, and performing became a thread connecting music and acting. She later balanced studying at UCLA with auditions in Los Angeles.
Finding Evie.
Her breakout came as Evie, the Evil Queen’s daughter, in Disney’s Descendants in 2015. The role brought together acting, singing and dance, and she returned for the next two films.
Her own songs.
She signed with Hollywood Records and released her debut solo single, “Love Is the Name,” in 2016. Her self-titled debut album followed in March 2022. On Purple Hearts, she played singer-songwriter Cassie Salazar, executive produced the film, and co-wrote and performed original songs including “Come Back Home.”
More ways to tell stories.
She performed Diane Warren’s Oscar-nominated “Applause” with Warren at the 2023 Academy Awards, then recorded “Moon River” and “White Christmas” with Andrea Bocelli. Alongside screen roles in Carry-On, The Life List and My Oxford Year, she advocates for girls’ education and gender equality as a UNICEF USA ambassador.
