While Sophia was at school she understood that acting might be her future profession, because she enjoyed being a part of school plays at Westridge School for Girls, from where she matriculated in 2000, following which she enrolled at the University of Southern California to study journalism. However, as with many othe stage-struck stars, she dropped-out to try and become a full-time actress. Sophia’s acting career began in 2001, when she appeared in the movie “Van Wilder”, directed by Walt Becker, working with Ryan Reynolds, Tara Reid, Kal Penn among others, and which brought her to the notice of others in the movie industry. She also appeared in such television shows as “MythBusters”, “Punk’d” and “Sabrina, the Teenage Witch”, all adding to the establishment of Sophia’s net worth.
