Originally from Philadelphia, Selin received her degree in journalism from Boston University in 2014. Her first assignment, for the Pulitzer Center, was reporting on refugees along the Turkish-Syrian border. She has worked as a freelance journalist in New York since 2016, when she completed her Master of Arts in politics and global affairs at Columbia University Journalism School; her thesis investigated the historical and economic causes of the persecution—ultimately genocide—of Burma’s Rohingya. As a researcher, editor and writer, her work focuses on identity, historical narrative and politics.
