Biography

Victoria Sanchez, a multilingual artist, was born in the Canary Islands, Spain, to a Polish dancer and a Spanish-Dominican documentary filmmaker. Since 1983, she has called Montreal, Canada her home.

Sanchez's acting career began in 1996, shortly after graduating from the John Abbott College Professional Theatre Program. Her breakthrough role was the lead in a popular French TV series in her native Quebec, which marked the start of a prolific career spanning over two decades.

Throughout her impressive career, Sanchez has appeared in more than 40 English and French-Canadian TV series, films, and video games, leaving a lasting impression on audiences. Some of her notable roles include 'Student Bodies', 'Wolf Girl', and 'Deus Ex: Mankind Divided'. Additionally, she has shared the screen with notable actors in projects such as WGN America's crime drama 'Bellevue' alongside Anna Paquin and 'Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan' with John Krasinski, Wendell Pierce, and Abbie Cornish.
