In 2005, Sophia joined Montreal's CKUT's show "Ecolibrium" as the green news reporter, where she reported on the week's environmental news. She co-hosted the show for a year, and continues to contribute when she has time. You can check out Ecolibrium's website here.
Sophia has always been a big fan of radio, especially when she was introduced to Glenn Gould's radiophonic style while studying electroacoustics in university. In 2001, she produced a four part radio documentary called "Branding: The Company's Thoughts", which was then added to the electroacoustics curriculum at Concordia University.
Branding: part one (13:55)
Branding: part two (16:07)
Branding: part three (14:31)
Branding: part four (10:25)
In 2003, while working in the CBC's National Radio Newsroom, Sophia was the studio director "The World at Six", and was a researcher for the investigative unit. She also began producing freelance radio pieces for shows such as The Current, The World this Weekend and National Radio Syndication.
