SVP & Studio Head, VALORANT

Anna Donlon

Anna Donlon is the SVP and Head of VALORANT Studios, overseeing and supporting the vision for VALORANT. Anna sets the tone and steers the overall franchise strategy by leveraging over twenty years of game development experience and passion for competitive shooter games. Before joining Riot, Anna honed her expertise at the renowned FPS studio Treyarch, working as a Senior Producer on AAA titles including Call of Duty®: Black Ops 1 & 2.

After joining Riot in 2015, Anna took on the role of Lead Producer for all League of Legends’ cosmetic content and in-game events. Her work led to some of League’s most iconic alternate universes, thematics, and game modes, including Star Guardian, Odyssey, PROJECT, and K/DA. After her time on League, Anna led the team that launched VALORANT on PC in 2020 as Executive Producer.

Anna is also a strong champion of women and marginalized genders. In 2021 she led the charge in creating the VCT Game Changers program, Riot Games’ first all-female esports program designed to create a future where players of all backgrounds are inspired to pursue and compete in VALORANT, playing together and not segregated by gender.
