Celina Frenn grew up in Latin America, where she explored the rainforest, entertained her sisters with made-up superheroes, and hid her thick bottle-cap glasses from her mother’s camera. After graduating with a bachelor’s degree in English, Celina was determined to use what most people considered to be a useless degree and then shocked herself by succeeding. As a freelance writer and showrunner, she has worked with brands like My Little Pony, LEGO Star Wars, Thomas the Tank Engine, and more. She is also the author of forthcoming graphic novel Spy Grandma. Celina lives in California with her animator husband and growing family.
