Sara Amini Bio, Age, Height, Family, Net Worth, Married

CSI: Vegas, a sequel series to the hugely popular original CSI: Crime Scene Investigation which ran for 15 seasons from 2000 to 2015, premiered on CBS in October 2021. Months later as the show continued to be loved it brought on board a couple of new medical examiners. And that included Sara Amini whom the rest of the writing called ‘Sara Amini Bio’ is about.

Sara Amini On CSI: Vegas

Sara Amini joined the cast of CSI: Vegas midway alongside Joel Johnstone. While Sara was on board as Sonya, Joel, who plays Archie on The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, got the role of Sonya’s intelligent, curious, and optimistic older brother and the assistant medical examiner.

As for Sonya, the network describes her as a regimented, methodical, and passionate head medical examiner.

Both these actors were signed as recurring actors. So, unlike non-returning William Peterson and Jorja Fox from Season 1, there is a high chance Sara will be on the show through multiple episodes either over the course of this or the entire series (i.e. upcoming seasons).

Early in August 2022, as Deadline magazine for the very first time revealed the news of her and Joel’s CSI debut, Sara gushed on the internet that Hollywood’s best-kept secret is that CSI is the best show to work on. And to be able to be a part of one of its shows Sara was believing herself to have found luck.

Sara Amini Family

Sara’s “baba” (father), Ali Amini arrived in the U.S. with his very own American dream in the late 70s-early 80s. In January 2022 and he turned 64 years old. At this point, he was based around Houston, Texas with Patricia Amini (Sara’s mother) who turned 58 in December 2021.

So, from her immigrant parents, Sara got her first-generation Iranian and Colombian lineage. In several of her articles, she has shared about growing up in a hybrid household where Navidad and Norooz are celebrated, empanadas and kabobs are eaten, and Farglish (English, Spanish, and Farsi) is spoken.

She also recalled that a combination of her parents’ strong desire for her to become an academic, with the fear she had of pursuing an arts degree that would lead her nowhere, made her chicken out in college and study Child Psychology instead.

Another story concerning her Iranian-Persian roots is: that she was told early on in her career that she did not look the part. And so she should change her last name to something like “Sara Rodriguez” to shout out that she is Latina.

As for Sara’s siblings, they may be Jasmine Amini (born in 1988) and Davud Aghaamini (born in August 1994).
