His extensive hospitality and public company board experience, combined with the establishment of the Finance and Capital Allocation Committee, will help to further strengthen an already strong Board and the governance framework of the company. We look forward to Alan’s contributions as the Board and management continue to focus on the company’s three strategic initiatives, achieving positive cashflow, executing on their path to profitability, and continuing to build the Selina brand.”

With the addition of Mr. Bowers, Selina's Board is now comprised of six independent directors and two executive directors.
