American actor and voice artist who played the woman Soji Asha believes to be her mother, in fact an artificial construct, in the first season of Star Trek: Picard.
Sumalee Montano is an American actor with an extensive career in animation and video game voice work as well as on-camera television roles.
In the first season of Star Trek: Picard she appears as the mother of Dahj and Soji Asha, seen only on communication screens. In Remembrance she urges the frightened Dahj to find Jean-Luc Picard, and in later episodes she takes Soji's regular calls from the Borg Artifact.
The Impossible Box reveals the truth: whenever Soji questions her past, the conversations make her fall asleep, and analysis shows every call lasts exactly seventy seconds. The mother is an AI programme designed to keep the synthetic twins unaware of what they are.
