Biography[]
Although she is still going to school, Sophia has a part-time summer job as a stewardess on a small commuter airline that runs once a week between the Evergreen Forest and Metropolis.
She is a figure skater, practicing every day during the winter. Her dream is to become a gold medal winner representing the Evergreen Forest in the Olympics.
Cedric Sneer has always had a crush on Sophia and the feelings are defintely mutual.
Sophia is identifiable by her navy blue hair, her light blue eyeshadow (added in The Raccoons and the Lost Star), matching sleaveless top, sneakers, and white shorts.
Phased out[]
Sophia was phased out of the show after "Strictly by the Book!" in the third season. The actual reason for her absence was apparently the writers' inability to decide how to portray her. Although she does cameo in "The Evergreen Express!", "A Catered Affair!", "The Family Secret!" (as an ancestor), and "The Headline Hunter!", and continues to appear in the show's opening.
