Erin “Aureylian” Wayne joined Riot Games as its first Global Head of Player Community in August 2021. She oversees community engagement across all of Riot’s titles, developing community strategies and programming for Riot’s interactions with players across the globe, including direct to community, social, editorial, and influencer relations.

the sense of connection across all of Riot’s IP.
