Biography

Selina is an award-winning and BAFTA-nominated screenwriter working in comedy, genre and drama. She is interested in bringing unheard voices and perspectives to the screen with a love of dark comedy and heartfelt character-driven stories. Her writing has been described as “funny, witty and poignant”, with an ability to “mine laughs from a very dark situation, whilst maintaining a genuinely touching story at the heart of it all”.

Selina is currently lead writer on a series for Sky, and has an original TV show in development with Left Bank.

Selina has written for seasons 3 and 4 of Sex Education (Eleven Film/Netflix), with the former winning an International Emmy. She has also written for season 3 of Hanna (NBC Universal/Amazon). She has been executive producer on season 2 of The Midwich Cuckoos, co-developing the series with David Farr (Route 24/Sky).

Selina has previously been in the writers’ rooms for season 2 of The Night Manager (BBC/Ink Factory/AMC) and season 2 of The Day of the Jackal (Carnival/Sky), and written for continuing drama Hollyoaks (Channel 4/Lime Pictures). Her short films include Painkiller (BBC/B3 Media) starring Benedict Wong which was nominated for the LOCO Discovery Award, and Keeping Up with the Joneses (BFI/Lighthouse) with Maxine Peake and Adeel Akhtar and directed by Michael Pearce. This was nominated for a BAFTA and a BIFA for Best British Short Film in 2014, won the Best Thriller Short Award at the London Short Film Festival 2014 and Best Thriller at the Aesthetica Film Festival 2014.
