Selena Li Sze-wan (born 12 February 1981) is an actress and former Miss Hong Kong 2003 contestant. That year, as a contestant from Toronto, Selena was the winner of Miss Talent and Miss Photogenic.[1] Prior to entering the Miss Hong Kong pageant, Selena was attending the University of Toronto studying for a Bachelor of Business Commerce degree. She is now an actress with TVB in Hong Kong. She can speak Cantonese, English, French, and a bit of Mandarin. After her character in the TVB series To Grow With Love was well-received, she has gained attention in Hong Kong with many commercial ads.

In May 2007, with much controversy over the battle of TVB and ATV, Virginia Lok has selected 10 potential “fa dans” of the future, including Natalie Tong, Vivien Yeo, Yoyo Chen, Tracy Ip, Aimee Chan, Leanne Li, Angel Sung and Sharon Luk. Selena Li was regarded as the most successful actress of the 10 selected, as she had the most leading roles.
