Lena Murisier is an award-winning writer who co-wrote & co-produced the movie "A Girl Like Him" sequel to "A Girl Like Her" (2015, Netflix) with six-time Emmy & Tony Nominee Tovah Feldshuh ("The Idolmaker," "Kissing Jessica Stein").

Additionally, Lena was in the Writers' Room of the BBC, BAFTA-Winning, Emmy Nominated series "Secret Life of Boys" to edit storylines and punch up jokes.
Lena was raised by a single parent in a multicultural home: her grandfather was born and raised in Africa. Her grandmother was a painter. Lena grew up in a small town in Switzerland, where the Chaplin World is located. While storytelling was always a big part of her life, Lena first wanted to become a Formula 1 race car driver, but the lack of representation in the sport pushed her to write about it instead. She is fascinated with true crime, always has a book in her hands, and religiously partakes in Taco Tuesday.
Lena speaks and writes in English, French, and German. She is originally from Switzerland, where she made a career in marketing and advertising. She moved to Los Angeles in 2018 to pursue a career in screenwriting and graduated from the New York Film Academy of Los Angeles.
