Sasson moved to Europe with her family, where she continued with her secondary school studies and focused on her dancing training with Mario Kitt in Zürich, Switzerland; then in one of her trips to Caracas she became part of the theater company Contrajuego's second workshop for actors, and she had the experience of acting in a classical play, of which she became a recurrent actress when subsequent visits to Caracas took place. Her next step is to work in Madrid as a model and continue acting in shows like El Comisario, Telecinco. Sasson went back to Venezuela, where she was the face of different advertising campaigns and started working in theater plays such as La Última Pasión del Cine and Cortocircuito and became part of Televen's soap opera El Gato Tuerto.
