Kiuyan Ran is a Senior Concept Art Outsource Supervisor at Blizzard Entertainment, overseeing cross-regional art production for Diablo IV. Joining Blizzard at 25 and rising to Senior Supervisor by 27, she helps build the cross-language standards, visual benchmarks, and workflows that enable teams in the U.S., China, and Korea to deliver cohesive AAA content.

Beyond games, Kiuyan is an active illustrator whose work spans publishing, exhibitions, and visual development. She has created 20+ internationally published book covers for HarperCollins, Macmillan, Penguin Random House, Saga Press, and major Asian publishers, and her art has been featured in ImagineFX, Illustration West, 3x3, and Creative Quarterly.

She continues to build creative bridges across cultures through art direction, illustration, and mentorship.​
