Gloria was born in Toronto in June of 1964. Her mother, an accomplished singer, encouraged Gloria to purse her creative talents. Gloria started off as most kids do, on the piano, but soon graduated to her interest in music technique and theory. She also studied jazz and ballet at the Canadian Royal Conservatory. As timed passed Gloria got into modeling. She relocated to Los Angeles in 1988. This made a few appearances on such shows as

ER in 1995. This role earned Gloria several Emmy nominations. Gloria later landed roles in the television series
