Sydney made her debut at the Pine Valley yacht club. She cozied up to Colby Chandler, who was unaware -- and later mortified to find out -- that Sydney was the niece of Winifred, the Chandler family maid. In typical teenage fashion, Sydney and Colby -- Pine Valley's version of Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie -- were each other's best friend and worst enemy all at the same time.

Sydney remained in Pine Valley for only a short time, and inexplicably vanished in the summer of 2007.
