​

Seraphima Nickolaevna Bogomolova was born in St Petersburg, Russia, into a family of scientist and intellectuals, - her mother, is a Doctor of Philosophy with the research on non-commercial use of lasers and her late father used to work on development of fuel for spaceships.

Seraphima was raised in a spirit of innovation, independent thinking and creative solution approach.

She holds a BSc degree in English and American Literature, received in a private Institute of Foreign Languages in St Petersburg, with her favourite author being a non-English though – Alexandre Pushkin – a poet, playwright, and novelist of the Romantic era and the founder of modern Russian literature.

As a kid Seraphima went to a French language school but it never grew on her. On her own initiative she studied English language, dreaming of becoming one day an international affairs reporter, travelling the world and sharing cultural and social news.

However, after graduating from the IFL she was set for a different kind of adventure, becoming involved with print media, promoting and marketing lifestyle publications.

Seraphima’s talent in visual creative writing and artistic streak combined lead her to the path of first, staging story-based ballets to her own librettos, and now to screenwriting, with her current finished works being ‘A Tricky Game', 'Puzzled, and 'Головоломка' (in Russian).

Her other literary works include books – Головоломка (in Russian) and Puzzled (in English),  Задача с неизвестными (in Russian), and Загадка Восточного Экспресса (in Russian).

Her life circumstances have brought Seraphima to many cities and countries of the world, including London, New York, Moscow, Dubai, Geneva, Berlin. But her all-time favourite remains London – a melting pot of creativity, individualism and quirky ideas.
