Sophie Mefan

About me

Born and raised in Munich, Germany with Cameroonian roots, likely an Italian Nonna in her past life, Sophie Mefan is now an actress and soul singer, even though she doesn't like drama and can't snap her fingers.

As a true Millennial should, she skillfully juggles shooting schedules, deadline hectic and the quest for the best coffee in town.
