GMA Network has named Ms. Nessa Valdellon as Senior Vice President for Public Affairs, effective January 15, 2025.

Valdellon's leadership was instrumental in shaping GMA Public Affairs into a creative content powerhouse. Diversifying from documentaries and news magazine programs, GMA Public Affairs has also brought audiences soaps, romantic comedies, historical dramas, and even drama anthologies. These include the multi-awarded programs "Kapuso Mo, Jessica Soho," "I-Witness," "The Atom Araullo Specials," “Reporter's Notebook,” "Lolong," and "Black Rider."

As the concurrent Executive Vice President for GMA Pictures, Valdellon's direction has made the Network's film-producing arm into a significant force in Philippine cinema. She led the collaboration between GMA Pictures and GMA Public Affairs for its first-ever investigative documentary film, "Lost Sabungeros," a highly controversial film that delved into the disappearance of over 30 cockfighters. Most recently, GMA Pictures in collaboration with GMA Public Affairs achieved back-to-back wins at the Metro Manila Film Festival, with "Green Bones" winning Best Picture in 2024 and "Firefly" in 2023.

A Kapuso for more than 20 years, Valdellon started her work in GMA as Program Manager and pioneered in reality production with programs such as 'Wish Ko Lang,' 'Extra Challenge,' 'Imbestigador,' and 'Survivor Philippines' - bringing these to the top of Philippine television ratings. Prior to that she was long time Executive Producer of “The Probe Team” under Probe Productions Inc.

Valdellon is a seasoned industry leader who has served as a grand jury member of the New York Festivals for six years and running and a juror for the Asian Academy Creative Awards since 2018.
