The short version.
Sophie Gold builds companies where exceptional craft meets the demands of modern brands: one devoted to world-class production, the other built for the everyday.
Sophie is President and Executive Producer of Eleanor, a global commercial production company with offices in Santa Monica and London. Under her leadership, Eleanor has been named an Ad Age Production Company to Watch, an Ad Age A-List company, and Gerety's Production Company of the Year.
In late 2025, she launched della, an independent always-on creative studio that builds Content Universes for brands. Incubated inside Eleanor over three years before spinning out on its own, della helps brands deliver the right message, at the right time, in service of the business.
Born in France, raised in England, and based in the US since 2011, Sophie lives in Los Angeles with her husband and two daughters.
